Surf Break: Tessellated Pavements

Name: Tessellated Pavements
Type: reef
Reliability: fairly consistent
Best Swell: SSE Offshore Wind: NNW

Tessellated Pavements on the East Coast is a fairly exposed reef break that has quite reliable surf. Winter is the best time of year for surfing here. Offshore winds blow from the north northwest. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the best swell direction is from the south southeast. The right reef break is best, but there is a left reef too.. It very rarely gets crowded here. Beware of rips, rocks and sharks.

Secret spot? We can hide it!
