Ormond Beach Surf at Seminole Avenue Fishing

6.1· Beach· Holly Hill, FL

At the north end of Ormond Beach's driving beach, the sand off Seminole Avenue runs south from Granada Boulevard as a wide, open stretch of Atlantic surf. The beach is open to fishing 24 hours. Anglers work the troughs for whiting and pompano on sand fleas and shrimp, and the wider Daytona-area surf also gives bluefish, flounder and black drum. Vehicles are allowed on this beach in posted hours, and Ormond is a quieter, more residential beach than Daytona's downtown, so it is easy to find room. Come on a rising tide, pick a trough, and keep rods clear of swimmers. Watch the rip currents and the traffic on the sand.
