Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Fort Walton Pier in Gulf Coast, Florida is an exposed beach break that offers fairly consistent surf, particularly during the winter months. The best conditions occur when a south-southeast swell meets offshore winds from the north-northeast. Most of the surf comes from windswells, with minimal groundswells. The beach break delivers both left and right-handers and works well across all tide stages. It can draw a crowd when it's on. Hazards include localism, pollution, and sharks. The most reliable clean waves are typically found in winter, with February being the prime month.
