Looks scary to me! Looks like you had a great time. More photos please!

Not really scary because it comes in sets so you are not constantly getting slammed!

Does Mexico Beach get more wave action than our area?? If so why?

No they hardly ever get waves. What happens is when it gets too big here to surf like 9+ bouys they get a swell because it is more protected there by an island. I am not sure which island. It may be St. George? You can see it when you are sitting in the water. Anyway, the island absorbs the big winds and current and Mexico Beach gets the leftover. It is awesome!!!! :clap_1:

Those waves in Mexico Beach are huge compared to these in Seaside today.
