Bradenton Beach in Florida is an exposed beach and pier break that works infrequently, with the best surf typically seen during winter. The break favors windswells over groundswells, with ideal wave conditions occurring when a northwest swell aligns with offshore winds from the east. It offers both left and right-hand waves and is known to draw crowds when it's breaking. The most consistent clean surf is reported in winter, especially in January.
