Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Clearwater Beach in Florida is an exposed beach break that favors offshore winds from the east-northeast and swells from the north-northwest. With limited fetch, the surf is primarily wind-driven, and conditions are best around high tide. The break offers rideable waves during winter, with November typically providing the most consistent clean surf. Despite its accessibility, it’s rarely crowded. Hazards include rocks, man-made obstacles like buoys, and occasional localism.
