Surf Break: Surfer's Paradise
| Name: | Surfer's Paradise |
|---|---|
| Type: | beach and reef |
| Reliability: | very consistent |
| Best Swell: NNW | Offshore Wind: SE |
Surfer's Paradise on the West Coast is a fairly exposed beach and reef break that has very consistent waves, although summer tends to be mostly flat. The best wind direction is from the southeast. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the optimum swell angle is from the north northwest. Waves at the beach break both left and right. Best around low tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Take care of the strong rips here.
