Spot Guide
The Cross at Pensacola Beach is a laid-back sandbars break on Florida's west coast, facing due south into the Gulf of Mexico where it picks up the modest swells generated by tropical systems and Gulf disturbances. Waves here are typically small and mellow, breaking over shifting sandbars that make it an approachable spot for beginners and longboarders, while fall hurricane season can occasionally push more consistent and punchy surf through. The spot's name comes from a prominent cross landmark nearby, making it an easy meetup point for the local surf community.
