The Pass (Amazons) is a Gulf Coast surf spot in Florida, known more for its occasional, storm-swollen surf than for consistent year-round waves. Like much of the Gulf, it’s typically small and soft, with the best sessions coming when a strong hurricane or tropical system sends in groundswell. When conditions line up, The Pass can offer clean, rideable waves with a relaxed, local feel.

What to expect

Wave type: Mostly soft, mellow beachbreak-style surf
Best size: Knee-high to shoulder-high, with occasional bigger hurricane swells
Best conditions: Long-period swells, light winds, and favorable sandbars
Crowds: Usually light compared with famous surf destinations
Skill level: Suitable for beginners on smaller days; more fun for intermediate surfers when it’s up

Spot character

The Pass has the classic Florida Gulf Coast vibe: warm water, sandy bottom, and surf that can go from flat to fun very quickly. It’s not a consistent destination, but when a swell arrives, it can produce some surprisingly enjoyable waves.
