Good morning, beach enthusiasts! If you’re in or near Jupiter today, the Atlantic is calling—but that steady northeast wind means we need to be strategic.

Today’s Quick Conditions Snapshot

• Wind: 13 mph from the northeast — refreshing but stirs up the shallows
• Tides: Low tide late morning (~9:59 AM) — prime shelling window
• Water Quality: Generally good across Palm Beach County
• Overall Vibe: Breezy, beautiful spring day

Top Recommendation: Jupiter Inlet & Jupiter Island Beaches

For the best mix of clear water, wind protection, and shelling, head toward the Jupiter Inlet and nearby barrier island beaches.

• Natural wind protection from jetties and coastline curves

Pro Tip: Start near Coral Cove and walk north toward Blowing Rocks Preserve for the best shell finds.
