Texas's most dependable public beach for shark teeth. Frontal systems and longshore transport rework offshore lag into shell-heavy cuts and bars.
Workable but not ideal. Best window opens around the 12:21 AM low (-0.1 ft, likely 0.6 ft below NOAA → more beach exposed). Brisk SE winds (14 mph) — expect chop; offshore push at the low keeps the beach exposed; seas 3 ft+ — murky and choppy.
Next 3 days: Today is the pick (50); tomorrow runs cooler at 39.
Plan around the fair low-tide window. 1.8ft swing · low 12:21 AM · ~0.6ft below predicted (offshore wind) · post-storm · +6 event boost.
Impact on visibility and stir-up over the next 5 days.
The Hunt Score blends tide range, lunar phase, daylight timing, recent stir, wind setup, and surf.
Fair. Standard conditions — go for the volume hunt.
We are deliberate about which factors to include. These are not currently in the model:
If you think we should add one of these, log a hunt with notes — every rated outcome helps us decide which signals actually predict tooth count.
Walk the shell line after a hard southeast blow or winter front. Search low swales, cut banks, and the backside of shell ridges.
Public beach access along Bluewater Highway and Surfside public lots; easy beach driving in some sections.
Surface collecting on the public beach is allowed. Follow local driving and dune-protection rules.
Trophy = headline find · Rare = real score · Uncommon = some trips · Common = most trips.
