Location
Details

Behind the jetty is a sheltered cove that’s popular with families, since young children can wade in the shallow, calm waters. On the other side of the dunes, the Gulf of Mexico strums a steady beat against the shore, undercutting it in places. This is where you’ll find the choppiest surf, which appeals to local surfers.
