Hillsboro Inlet Spot Guide

About Hillsboro Inlet

Sandbars run off the south side of the Hillsboro Inlet in a fashion similar to Reef Road; however, the surf is not nearly as good. Big N swells break point-style off the south side of the Inlet. Super-long. The place gets hollow, but needs a big swell.
