On a small to medium, peaky swell, scenic Cloudy Bay can produce good beachbreak waves, favouring rights breaking into the rip. Any hint of north in the wind will be offshore somewhere along the curve of white sand. Gets picture perfect on it's day and the rockier peaks around Middle Beach are a good shout. Around this area is Labillardire State Reserve, hosting a few fickle reefs and Australia's southernmost lighthouse.
Very consistent and one of the best beachbreaks in Tassie.

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.
