About This Spot
Boodjidup is a west-northwest facing beach break located on Margaret River region coastline in Western Australia. The spot features a pristine sandy beach backed by dense vegetation and rocky headlands, with direct exposure to Southern Ocean swells. The water shows characteristic turquoise coloring transitioning to deep blue offshore, indicating depth increases rapidly beyond the immediate break zone.
The spot is characterized by consistent wave action with average 2.48m swells and rocky/reef features scattered in the nearshore zone. Side-shore winds from the northeast provide optimal kitesurfing conditions, though reliability is low at 11.5%. Wind conditions are marginal with average 7.9 knots, requiring patience for stronger sessions.
This intermediate-level spot suits riders comfortable with rocky terrain and moderately powerful beach breaks. The exposed nature demands good wave reading and exit strategy awareness. Winter months typically bring stronger and more reliable winds. Entry and exit require careful navigation around visible rock formations. The fetch distance is substantial given direct ocean exposure, making this a serious break requiring respect for ocean conditions.
Hazards & Safety
Rocky outcrops and reef formations visible in shallow water
Significant shore break with white water indicating strong wave action
Limited protected areas - open ocean exposure
Shallow reef and rock zones near beach requiring careful entry/exit
Strong currents likely given wave energy and coastal configuration
