There are none, since Palm Beach county has little to no waves unless there's a strong northeaster or other big storm.

I see. So one would have to drive north up the coast. I have been surfing in Cocoa Beach a few times, it is quite good. I was hoping there would be something closer ??

try going north to Sebastion. It's like an hour north of WPB. waves are pretty alright. You should be able to have some decent surfing there

I think you right, either Sebastian or Ft. Pierce maybe. Doesn't look like there any waves south of those points at all.

Thanks!

There is better surf in West Palm than anywhere south of West Palm. The piers (Lake Worth and Juno) tend to attract the most swell-especially Juno. Breakers in front of the The Breakers hotel usually breaks. I hear Reef Road (south side of the inlet) has been ruined due to dredging, but you can always check Ocean Reef park on the north side. West Palm has the most photogenic waves in all of Florida - clear blue water and barrels, when its on.
