Spot info
- Town: Cocoa Beach (Brevard County, Florida)
- Water: Sea
- Sports: Surf
- Best wind directions: WWNWWSWNWSW
The best-known surf town on Florida's Space Coast, with sandbar peaks along the whole beach and around the Cocoa Beach Pier. It picks up north-east to south-east swell from nor'easters, Atlantic lows and hurricanes, and is offshore in a westerly. Usually small and friendly, which makes it a good place to learn; autumn brings the most consistent waves, and summer weekends the crowds.
