Spessard Holland is a surf spot in North Florida, USA, on the Atlantic coast near Melbourne / Indialantic in the broader Southeast surf zone. It’s a beachbreak with a local feel and is known more for fun, workable waves than heavy power.
Quick description
- Type: Beachbreak
- Best for: Beginner to intermediate surfers, though it can offer decent peaks for experienced surfers when conditions line up
- Wave quality: Can be playful and rippable on the right swell; consistency varies
- Bottom: Sandy
- Crowd: Often local and manageable, but can get busy when conditions are good
- Vibe: Relaxed, classic East Coast beach surf atmosphere
Conditions
- Works best with groundswell from the east or northeast
- Offshore winds from the west or northwest can clean it up
- Like many Florida beachbreaks, it can be small and soft, but occasional swells bring faster, more defined waves
- Can be affected by sandbars shifting, so the break can change over time
Things to know
- Surf quality is highly dependent on sandbar setup, tide, and swell direction
- After storms or strong swell events, the spot can improve briefly as sandbars form
- It’s a good spot for longboarders, learners, and shortboarders on the right day
