Surf Spots - 2nd Light

This is my FAVORITE surfing spot!   

You may ask WHY?  Why along the coast which is King of the smallest waves and King of the LARGEST SURF SHOP (Ron Jon's)?

But I do have a few good reasons!  First and foremost, this is the place where I learned to surf!  Yes, RocketBoy pushed me into my first wave at this spot in 2009!  I was hooked from day one and love to come back to the place where it all began!  So this place is special to me and always will be.  

While there are days the surf can be "better" at other locations along the Space Coast, I usually don't make the trip to any others.  I'd rather take my chances here at 2nd Light.  

Secondly, this is where Kelly Slater, 11x ASP World Champion, learned to surf.  Now I'm not saying that since this is both Kelly Slater's and my home surf spots that some day I'll be a ASP world champion, but…who knows!
