The Wave
North-northeast wind is the clean lane, south-southwest swell is the main trigger, and mid tide usually gives a cleaner read on the bars.
Sandy Point is the main Waratah Bay surf beach, a long open south-facing bay with a patrolled settlement section, a broad surf zone, and reliable south-southwest pulses. It feels bigger and more spacious than the township name suggests, with plenty of room for the beach to spread out when the swell is on.

North-northeast wind is the clean lane, south-southwest swell is the main trigger, and mid tide usually gives a cleaner read on the bars.
Use the Sandy Point settlement access and the Waratah Beach SLSC frontage.
Low tide makes the rips and troughs more obvious, so check whether the inner bar is detached and how hard the rip lines are running before paddling out.
The beach is patrolled in the settlement area, but the open bay still throws plenty of current and hazard into the mix.
Stop guessing and start surfing. WaveWise analyzes live data to find your best upcoming sessions so you spend less time planning and more time paddling out.
