About Rudee Inlet

Serving as the vital connection between the Atlantic Ocean and the inland waterways, this dynamic area encompasses the Rudee Inlet jetty, Owls Creek, and the local fishing fleet. The inlet is constantly buzzing with activity, including surfing the jetty breaks, taking deep-sea fishing charters, renting jet skis, and watching massive boats enter the Atlantic. Charter captains and recreational boaters heavily rely on a slack or high tide to safely pass through the rock jetties, avoiding the treacherous, swift currents and standing waves that build during a rapid tidal shift.
