Ormond Beach is a classic Florida - East Coast beach break situated just north of Daytona Beach, offering mellow, rolling waves that are well-suited for beginners and longboarders. The wide, sandy shoreline faces east into the Atlantic, picking up northeast groundswells and tropical storm energy that rolls through during fall hurricane season. The relatively gentle wave energy and forgiving sandbars make it a popular spot for locals learning to surf, though it can surprise on bigger swell days with punchy, fast-breaking peaks.
