Surf 17th Ave

17th Ave - Pensacola Beach This beach break features both right and left waves over a sandy bottom, offering ordinary to fun power. The spot is accessible with instant access (<5 min) once you reach Pensacola Beach, heading east on Avenida 17. Historically, 17th Ave was known for its beautiful A-frames and clear green water, making it a popular surf destination in the 90s. It works best during mid to high tide with a rising tide, and optimal conditions occur with swells from the south, southeast, or east, complemented by winds from the north, northwest, or northeast. While weekdays see few surfers, weekends can get crowded. Surfers should be cautious of rips and undertow in the area.
