Sand Key Video: Thrashing Sand Key in May


I’ve said it once, but I’ll say it again. That was a really awesome May.  This video features high performance surfing from an incredible spring swell, just one swell of a series of swells from this epic month. The warm conditions and high surf repeating throughout the month were especially unusual, and delightfully so. It would have been just impossible to wipe the smirk off of everyones faces. Simply put, it was the best month of May we’ve seen in a very long time.

Sand Key

 

Sand Key Park is located on the peninsula named Sand Key.  It is considered a part of Clearwater Beach.  Beach and jetty access are through the park.  This spot is good on northwest swells. It is a consistent wave by the gulf’s standards.   It is notoriously difficult to surf.  It is a beach-break, so the wave often is full of sand.   It is most often surfed in the winter-time.
