New Smyrna Inlet
Edit SpotAbout
Its fun during a swell and its always crowded during the summer. This spot could be better because the sand-bar is about 3 feet deep with lurking "angry-fish". the dolphins swing by a lot and that puts on quite a show.
Atmosphere:
Fairly friendly....not too many egos but people talk smack if you snake some of their waves because they need something to complain about.
Additional Info:
Park your car about 200 meters from the jedis and hit a crowd. Watch for unexpected company on a ride and keep your eyes open for local groms. a lot of communicating is neccesary if you want to leave with your board in the same shape it was in when you got there.
