Mayport Poles is a surf spot with predominantly wind-driven conditions, as the data shows wind swell dominating throughout the year while ground swell remains relatively low. The best months for surfing here are from September through December, when swell energy increases, and wind conditions improve slightly. September stands out with the highest ground swell contribution (18%) and manageable wind swell (52%), resulting in a mean swell size of 0.7m. October and November follow closely, offering larger swells (0.8m) due to stronger wind swell activity (63-67%) and slightly better wind conditions compared to summer months. December also remains decent with 0.7m waves and a small uptick in favorable winds (21%). Winter and early spring (January-March) have consistent wind swell but suffer from poor wind conditions (82-85% unfavorable), making sessions hit-or-miss. Summer (June-August) is the least favorable, with weak swells (0.5m), high percentages of no-swell days, and the worst wind setups. Overall, late fall into early winter provides the most reliable surf, though wind quality remains a persistent challenge year-round. Advanced surfers can find opportunities when swell aligns with rare clean wind days, but the spot is rarely pristine.
