There is a lot of good surfing in Florida. l suggest New Smyrna specifically, its probably the best. However, it is the shark attack capital, & 3000 bull sharks recently migrated to Florida, so I'd be on the lookout. Other than that, Cocoa Beach of course (Slater is hometown) & Sebastian's, both great. Of course, not so much in the summer. Close by & less well known is Orchid Beach, close to Vero & there is a spot with a very decent left, but u have to find it for yourself. Other than that, Del Ray is good too, take ur pick.

No. Destin is on the Gulf Coast, & in spite of the glowing praise that the Surfline.com note gives it, it is like every other beach on the Gulf of Mexico, surfless most of the time. That is not to say that a good tropical depression can not whip up some good surf every now & then, but in general, the Gulf is pretty sad. l know l make Gulf Coast surfers mad when l say that, but they know it is true (and l am sure, very frustrating. They have better patience than me).

The east Coast of Florida, from Jacksonville on down to around Jupiter Beach has some great surf spots. Like most east Coast spots, summer is the worst time of year, but there r some breaks that r more consistent than others. South Florida is probably worse than the Gulf Coast, because the Bahamas interrupt the swell & wind patterns. However, with a good (NASTY) tropical depression going, u can even surf in Miami.
