One of the earliest surfed spots in Florida, Fort Pierce North Jetty sits within Fort Pierce Inlet State Park. A bowling right breaks against the jetty with additional peaks up and down the beach. Its geographic position is significant: the first spot far enough above the Bahama Bank to receive swells from the south and east, meaning it occasionally picks up small peaks even in dead summer. Best at high tide with a longboard-friendly character.
