Sunglow Pier has been a Daytona Beach Shores fixture since 1960, serving as a reliable alternative to Main Street Pier with fewer crowds. The pier focuses swells and creates defined peaks on both sides. Home to Crabby Joe's Deck & Grill and equipped with HD live surf cams. A popular grom hangout that produces slightly better surf than the open Daytona beach.
