Venice Jetties North is a popular surf spot located on the Gulf Coast, known for attracting a mix of local surfers and visitors. This area typically sees a lot of activity, especially when the waves are rolling in. The sandy bottom combined with the rock jetties creates a unique environment for surfers, making it a staple in the local surf scene. With free parking available, it’s easy to access and get in the water.

The surf here is generally consistent, with optimal conditions usually found between autumn and winter. Venice Jetties North can handle swell sizes from about 2 to 7 feet (0.6 to 2.1 meters), and you’ll often find waves breaking over sand. The preferred swell directions include South, South-West, and West. During the winter months, the waves can be steeper and faster, making it better for intermediate and expert surfers. The best winds come from the North-East and East, while the ideal tide heights range from low to mid, which is when you can really take advantage of the waves here.

When the conditions are right, you'll find A-frames and some solid tube rides. The spot can get pretty packed, especially when the swell is good, so be prepared for crowded waters. It's best suited for shortboards and funboards, with fish and longboards also working depending on the day. Just remember, this place can be intense during peak times, so be mindful of the local vibe.
