Fish Pass Jetties
Edit SpotAbout
One of the better, not best, spots to surf along the Texas coast.
Atmosphere:
can be pretty crowded, and the space between the jetties can be a little dangerous during head-high days.
Additional Info:
Surf between 2 jetties for a larger than average wave, but a short ride. Surf the north or south side for longer rides.
