Palmetto Pavilion is a mellow beach break located on Florida's East Coast near Boca Raton, where the Atlantic-facing shoreline picks up easterly swells pushed by trade winds and tropical systems. The waves here are typically small and soft, making it a welcoming spot for beginners and longboarders looking to cruise gentle reforms along the sandy shore. Fall hurricane season delivers the most consistent and occasionally punchy surf, giving this otherwise relaxed stretch of South Florida coastline its best moments.
