Forgiving right point over reef with long rides; SE swell wraps a long way round the headland, so it needs more size than it shows. It works best on a SE swell with SW winds around low tide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tide is best at Arrawarra Point?

The Arrawarra Point profile favors low tide. Compare this preference with the forecast tide and local conditions before choosing a session.

What wind direction is offshore at Arrawarra Point?

The Arrawarra Point profile uses wind from SW (215°) as its preferred direction, with an offshore range of 165° to 265°. Wind speed matters too: light winds outside that range can still produce surfable conditions, while strong offshore winds can make takeoffs difficult.

What swell size and direction work best at Arrawarra Point?

The Arrawarra Point scoring profile favors swell from SE (45° to 185°), a swell-height range of 1.4m to 4.6m, and a reference period of 13s. These are model inputs, not guaranteed breaking-wave heights or a promise that the surf will suit every ability.
