Ponte Vedra is unique in the Jacksonville area thanks to a coquina rock shelf beneath the sand that creates reef-like characteristics, especially at low tide. The break shifts every few years between an outside reef break and an inside beach break depending on storms. When a solid NE groundswell hits the exposed shelf, it produces fast walls and defined peaks — the only true reef component in the immediate Jax area.
