Spoils breaks over an artificial island created by dredging the ocean floor for Port Everglades Inlet — one of the most unique spots in South Florida. Good conditions arrive perhaps once every 5-10 years on hurricane swells or strong NNE groundswells. The 200-meter paddle against strong inlet currents filters out all but the most committed surfers, and boat traffic from Port Everglades passes through the lineup.
