Margaret River Surf Forecast map for predicting the best wave and wind conditions across the region. For surfers, the map shows the most powerful swell tracking across near-shore open water and not the peak waves experienced by boats out at sea. Move your mouse over the ocean swell symbols or the surf breaks on the coastline to see a more detailed surf forecast including wave period and wind conditions. The forecast updates every 6 hours and most live weather reports update every hour. You can animate the Margaret River Surf map or show live wind and wave conditions as reported from wavebuoys and local weather stations. Surf breaks shown along the Margaret River coastline are also listed below.

Margaret River Surf Breaks

If you're expecting calm east coast surfing conditions then think again. This region of WA is home to waves that eat surfers and Margaret River is renowned as one of Australia's big wave spots. Not all the breaks in the region regularly max out and a scatter of surf breaks can be found that suit all abilities. That said however, there are definitely more spots here that suit the experienced surfer. The coastline is beautiful with plenty of coves to explore and there are waves to be had year round. Local knowledge will be a big help if you're planning on staying here for a while.
