Venice North Jetty
Edit spotAbout
Hard to catch if you dont live there you've got to keep your eye on hurricanes and gulf winter lows to catch it good.
Atmosphere:
Gangs of wave hungry gulf coasters and a few east coast hardcores make the scene on hurricane swells. Strong wave on a swell with large shifty peaks that can suprise you. Most people think the gulf is weak, but it has its days just like anywhere else.
Additional Info:
Best on distant Hurricanes swells. In photo one the winds were still 40-50 mph.Two jetties on either side of the Venice Inlet provide the best surfing on the Southwest Florida coast.By far the best place to catch a southwest swell, North Jetty is one of the few places on the flat coast that will hold a big wave.
