Stormrider Description
With blockhaus scattered in the sand, this is one of the most photographed beaches on the coast. Perfect barrels are regularly on offer for those that can handle the crowd of gifted locals and tube-hungry visitors. More of the same to the south, towards the VVF camping.
High consistency, always crowded and strong currents.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
