Bowling right against the north jetty of Fort Pierce Inlet, inside Fort Pierce Inlet State Park (entry fee; gates open at 8 a.m.). Unlike most Florida spots it likes high tide: the A-frames get punchier as the tide comes in and fade toward low. Best on NE to ENE swell with a light S to W wind; much past head high it closes out.
