General Description

Consistent reef break on Rottnest Island. Left and rights break over the rocky reef. Due to its south facing location it gets plenty of swell and can be working when the swell is too small for other breaks on the island.

Works on a south or south west swell and offshore in a north or north east wind. Does hold a decent size but can get busy - it is probably the most popular break on the island.

How to get there

As there are no cars allowed on the island you have the choice of either the bus (get off at Strickland Bay spot and then have a walk to the beach) or bike.

Where to Stay

You can stay on the island and it is worth while if you are going to be surfing on the island for a few days. Otherwise stay in the City of Freo and get the ferry that runs throughout the day.

Equipment Hire

When its Flat?

Take in the scenery, take some photos of the Quokkas or have a round of golf. Snorkelling is great around the island and reefs can be reached from the beach.
