Atlantic Beach offers multiple sandbars to choose from along its stretch of east-facing coastline, south of Mayport and north of Neptune Beach. Generally smaller waves and fewer crowds than the Poles or the Pier make it ideal for beginners. Both left and right handers break along shifting sandbars, and it serves as a mellow gateway to the more powerful breaks nearby.
