Begin on the Nothern side of the outcrop, there is a lip with a shelf halfway up, hands on the jugs to the right of the lip, bringing feet onto the shelf and working your way over the top.

Hands on the Southern jugs inside the alcove, bring feet up to the shelf and traverse across the gap in the alcove entrance, drop-knee for style, and work hands along the Northern side of the alcove to top the gap.

Start below hueco and climb up using. There are many variations that can be done (left of hueco, direct above, right of hueco), but all are fun to try. Watch out for high tide as the water shoots into the hueco (and into your face if you aren't careful).

Another proper line in this area. Start matched on the north side of the cave formation under a roof with an opening in it. There is a smooth ledge for hands and feet, traverse south from beneath the roof, and setup for a long reach out to the head wall. If you catch the hold, match hands and set feet up to pull straight up over the bulge. Top out. This route is as fun as it sounds, and at times it can be wet, sandy, and has a sharp top out. Good.

Sit start matched in the south west side of the cave formation. Begin by traversing east, finding the lowest possible ledges for hands. You will most certainly need to sprinkle a few heel hooks in there along with some spicy footwork. As you get to the exit of the cave set your feet high and work your way up over the northeast face. The rock gets sharp and brittle here so watch how you distribute your weight. Head straight up a few moves and top out. A clean pumpy line that involves a bit of finess. Climb with a mustache to reduce the rating by one full grade. 

Easier variation by using upper handholds before you pull the east bulge. Don’t be a wuss, Harden up and get it done.  

The climbing here is as good as it gets in Florida; however, many natural hurdles must be negotiated. Low tide is critical as well as low swell. If there are waves for surfing, the climbing will be soaked. Another variable is the height of the climbing. This changes significantly depending on the state of the sand. In winter, the sand is much lower, so the climbs are higher. Unfortunately, this is when the most swell action also occurs. Reverse for summer.
