Stumps is a surf spot in South Florida, USA, typically associated with the Southeast Florida coast. It’s a reef break / reefy shoreline setup that can offer clean, fun waves when conditions line up, but it’s generally more of a local, somewhat fickle spot than a consistent big-wave destination.

What it’s like

Wave type: Reef break with sections that can be punchy and fast
Best conditions: Usually works best with small to moderate swell and light offshore winds
Consistency: Inconsistent compared to more exposed Florida breaks, so timing is key
Skill level: Better suited to intermediate to advanced surfers, especially if the reef gets shallow or the takeoff is sharp

Conditions

Swells: Picks up smaller east/northeast swells more effectively than huge long-period surf
Wind: Offshore or light wind is preferred; onshore wind can quickly mess it up
Water: Warm year-round, with tropical to subtropical conditions depending on season

Hazards / notes

Shallow reef: Can be shallow and unforgiving at lower tide
Crowds: If it’s firing, expect locals and some crowd pressure
Tides: Tide can make a big difference in wave shape and safety

Overall vibe

Stumps is the kind of spot that can be really fun on the right day, but it’s not usually a place for guaranteed surf. It’s best described as a localized reef break with occasional quality rather than a reliable everyday wave.
