Canaveral Seashore is a sandy bottom surf zone with little or no structure other than a trough that forms just offshore of the beach break and a sandbar that rises past the trough, followed by another trough and deeper water, though not as deep as the waters farther south near Sebastain Inlet. The predominate species caught are whiting, pompano, bluefish, spanish mackerel, black drum and redfish. It is not known as a consistent producer of snook and tarpon.
