North Jetty Beach

This is the county's multi-tool beach: year-round lifeguards, a fishing jetty that produces at tide changes, a bait shop and concession on site, and front-row seats to every boat running between the Intracoastal and the Gulf. When a swell arrives, the jetty shapes some of the only rideable surf on this coast — regulars keep a dedicated surf report on it.

Around tide changes — the fishing picks up and inlet boat traffic is steady entertainment.

There's a bait shop right at the park — buy bait there and fish the tide change from the jetty.
