About this Spot

Peg Leg’s is a surf spot located in Atlantic Coast, Florida. The spot is situated in Satellite Beach, on A1A near the stoplight at Desoto Pkwy, just south of Pelican Beach Park. The surf spot provides both left and right waves. Peg Leg’s features a mix of rocks and sand on the bottom, making it suitable for low and medium tides. The spot is suitable for surfers of all experience levels, but it’s important to check your skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match your abilities. The waves at Peg Leg’s sometimes break, with a length ranging from 50 to 150 meters. The spot is known for its relatively uncrowded conditions, which can be appealing for those seeking a less busy surf experience. However, it’s always important to respect the locals and follow proper surf etiquette, especially when the spot gets busier. Peg Leg’s offers excellent surfing conditions on the outside, typically producing nice rights and lefts without closing out during high and low tides with at least a 5+ ft swell. The inside section can also be great at low tide, but surfers should be mindful of the reef. It’s worth noting that the spot can be popular with younger surfers, so be aware of your surroundings and avoid dropping in on others. Peg Leg’s is known to perform well during tropical depressions and can provide good waves throughout the year with sufficient swell. Surfers should be cautious of potential hazards such as rip currents, undertow, and the presence of rocks. There have also been reports of shark encounters in the area, so remain vigilant while in the water. For those interested in checking conditions before heading out, surf forecasts, reports, and maps can be helpful tools. Remember to always prioritize safety and respect for fellow surfers when visiting Peg Leg’s or any other surf spot.
