South Jetty Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

South Jetty at Murrells Inlet is an exposed jetty break offering punchy shorebreaks and grovely waves when swell arrives. Today, conditions are semi-clean but textured, with an emerging windswell setting up for the logs and grovelers. The spot works best in late summer into early fall—especially September— when storm-driven southeast swells and smoother offshore or cross-offshore winds prime the jetty for peeling peaks. Despite its jetty structure enhancing the swell, consistency remains low, making good sessions rare. Expect fun but short-lived rides.
