Ocean Reef Park is a surf spot located on Singer Island that offers a decent place to catch some waves. It’s surrounded by green spaces, making it a nice break from the usual condo scenery. Access to the spot is easy, and you won’t have to deal with heavy crowds most of the time, especially when it’s smaller.

At Ocean Reef, you can expect short, fast lefts and some occasional rights that break off the coral outcroppings. The point north of the Lifeguard Tower tends to be more consistent, while the point south can often have better form. The spot works well on northeast (NNE) to northeast (NE) swells, and in the right conditions, you might find it peaking nicely. The waves handle sizes from about 4 feet (1.2 meters) to 8 feet (2.4 meters) and can be fun when they’re waist-high to overhead. Be mindful that it can close out once it gets overhead, especially with wind from the west-northwest (WNW). Early mornings are usually the best time to surf here to avoid it blowing out. Most of the action happens around low to mid tide, and the paddle out isn’t too tough for the most part.

The local vibe is pretty chill, and you shouldn't face any issues with locals. Hazards are typical of the ocean, like sharks and jellyfish, so just keep an eye out. The environment around the spot is nice and clean, making it a pleasant place to hang out when you’re not surfing. This park tends to shine during the fall through spring seasons, especially during hurricanes, but keep in mind, like anywhere in South Florida, the surf can be hit or miss depending on the swell.
