About This Spot
This Brisbane beach break faces northeast toward open ocean, with a sandy beach backed by forested headland. The spot shows moderate wave development with visible white water indicating regular swell exposure. Water conditions appear relatively sheltered compared to the open ocean beyond, suggesting a moderately protected beach environment. Best conditions occur with northwesterly winds (315°), which provide consistent side-shore flow parallel to the beach. The low average wind reliability (0.1%) and modest wave height (1.05m) suggest this is a variable spot dependent on seasonal weather patterns. The shallow water near shore and steep beach gradient make this suitable for beginners and intermediate kiters seeking smaller, more manageable conditions. Kiters should be aware of the rocky headland to the north, which creates potential hazards and localized current flows. Water visibility may vary depending on recent rainfall and swell activity. Best sessions likely occur during winter months when Southern Hemisphere swells and wind patterns are most favorable. Check local conditions and tide before visiting.
