Surf Report

Bryan Davis

Wednesday: Shin to knee high with lucky bigger sets from the east at 7 sec with light onshore winds that pick up a notch for the afternoon.

Thursday: We stay shin high with light morning onshore winds that pick up fiord the afternoon.

Looking Ahead: We are staying small on Friday and then we have a bout of strong NE winds that fills in from the north as the day goes on pushing up some big chunky surf. Winds stay onshore in the 20 mph range for Sunday and Monday for continued big chunky surf. Onshore winds may ease for the mid week for a window of workable surf so stay tuned.

The Indialantic Boardwalk sits at the east end of State Road 192 (5th Avenue) at James H. Nance Park in the Town of Indialantic, and is one of the more central and social surf spots on this stretch of the Space Coast. It fronts an exposed, sand-bottom beach break that works on all tides and offers lefts and rights for surfers of all experience levels. With the boardwalk, nearby shops and restaurants, and easy access, it is a popular gathering point as much as a surf spot.

Best Swell Direction: Northeast swells work best, with a mix of groundswell and windswell keeping it consistent, plus tropical and hurricane swells adding size in season.

Best Winds: West to southwest winds are offshore here and hold the faces clean.

Best Size: Works well from waist-high on up, running small much of the year, with the bigger, better days arriving on solid northeast swells and in hurricane season.

Crowds: A popular, easy-to-reach spot that draws a steady crowd, especially on weekends and when the surf is up. Peaks near the boardwalk fill in first, so a walk up or down the beach usually opens up more room.

Metered Parking: Nance Park has about 100 paved spaces, most of them metered, so bring a way to pay and check the posted meter rules. It can fill quickly on good days and weekends, so arrive early.

Facilities: The park is well equipped, with restrooms, exterior showers, a boardwalk with accessible ramps, pavilions, and a playground, and there are shops and restaurants a short walk away. Use the marked boardwalk crossovers to protect the dunes.

Space Coast Bonus: Like the rest of this coast, it is a good vantage point for watching rocket launches from Cape Canaveral to the north, and the public beach does not close for them.

Operating Hours (Subject to change): The park and beach are generally open during daylight hours, with metered parking enforced as posted. Confirm current hours and parking rules with the Town of Indialantic at https://www.indialantic.com

Fees: Surfing and beach access are free, but parking is metered as noted above.
