Carpet Muncher
Edit SpotAbout
In my opinion (yours may be different) this spot is in the top ten in florida when it goes off. If you can, try this spot on a shoulder high day.
Atmosphere:
The only real locals are those who have condos or hotel rooms in the area. There is an access point near the americano, so that's the best way to get on the beach. Enjoy.
Additional Info:
This spot isn't really a point break, but the left is short and hollow on an AVERAGE day (one day it was about head high and i can honestly say, it was a good 100 yards of fast wave, none of that sloppy shit florida is occasionally known for.) The right is better for those who simply love goin off the lip. The inside section moves really fast too. There's a channel to the south, but the paddle out is pretty easy to get out. I would reccomend finding a grocery store parking lot for parking. There ARE no locals, an occasional pack of groms at best. Great spot for those who love the hollow lefts and rolling right. Will have pictures when i go to my condo in August, 2008.
