Description

Hess - Florida Hess features a reef break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The spot is known for its fast, fun, and ledgey waves, making it an exciting choice for surfers. It works well at all tides, with optimal conditions during winter swells and summer hurricane season. This hidden gem is located just off A1A, with instant access from a dirt parking area. The atmosphere is tranquil, often devoid of crowds, providing a stark contrast to the busy Pelican Beach. Surfers should be cautious of rocks and potential shark encounters. With consistent southeast, east, and northeast swells, Hess is a reliable alternative for those seeking uncrowded waves and a unique surfing experience.
