Monster hole
Edit SpotAbout
this is my favorite spot in florida. it is probably one of the longest lefts on the coast when there is a big swell.(i also live 1-2 miles north of the inlet.)
Atmosphere:
monster hole is a part of sebastian inlet. it breaks out very far on the south side on a bigger, cleaner swell which is very fickle for this area, so not many out-of-towners know about it.
Additional Info:
It's a shallow sandbar with some giant rocks underneath setup about 1/4 of a mile out.It's a long left that peels for about 100-150 yards on an average monster Hole Day (4-6') and at 8'++ it reels for 200+ yards.Big sharks even bigger hole between the sandbar/rocks and the beach.No for begginers,more for the advanced intermediate,and the Experts.for unexperienced surfers, do not surf on a good or big day. many rip tides, currents, sharks and remember this is probably the most powerful wave on the east coast when working.
