Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

18th Street serves as a structured beach-break in the Jacksonville Beach area, where sandbanks around the jetty often generate clean, rippable peaks—typically both lefts and rights—especially when swell lines up with favorable winds. The spot performs best in fall and winter, when northeast and east-northeast swells, combined with offshore winds, bring the most consistent shape. Surf generally rides best around low to mid tide and reaches waist- to chest-high when swells pack enough punch. Being slightly tucked away, it experiences lighter crowds than nearby central accesses, though surfers should remain vigilant for rip currents, rapid tide shifts, and currents near the jetty structure.
