Injidup
Injidup is a scenic beach break tucked into a small bay between granite headlands on the Cape Naturaliste coast. The beach offers multiple peaks that shift with the sandbars, providing options for surfers of all abilities. The setting is stunning—turquoise water, white sand, and native bushland meeting the shore. When SW swells wrap into the bay, the peaks can produce surprisingly hollow waves. The protected nature of the bay means it handles bigger swells than exposed beaches, making it a reliable option when the coast is pumping.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of wave is Injidup?
Injidup is a beach break in Yallingup, Australia, with peaks that run both left and right.
What swell works best at Injidup?
Injidup picks up swell from the SSW round to the W, and it's best when it's coming straight out of the SW. It starts working at around 0.8m and handles up to about 2.5m, with the sweet spot around 1.6 to 2.1m. Period matters too: aim for 12s or longer, as anything under 8s tends to be weak. These are the numbers our scoring uses, so treat them as a guide rather than a promise.
What wind is offshore at Injidup?
An E wind is dead offshore at Injidup, and anything from the NE round to the ESE keeps it clean. The morning is typically the best window, roughly 5am to 10am. Light winds from other directions can still be fine; strong offshores can make it hard to get into waves.
What tide is best at Injidup?
Injidup isn't especially fussy about tide and generally works through the cycle, so swell and wind matter more here. Big tides can still change how it breaks, so it's worth checking before you paddle out.
