Deceptive deep-water bommie off Warden Head: punchy A-frame take-off and fast, hollow right for ~80 m, occasional left. S swell best; needs 4 ft+. Always uncrowded. It works best on a SSE swell with W winds. Watch for: sharks (fish-gutting at the harbour), long paddle, rope access down the cliff.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tide is best at Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head)?

The Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head) profile does not specify a preferred tide stage. That does not mean tide has no effect: check local conditions alongside swell and wind.

What wind direction is offshore at Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head)?

The Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head) profile uses wind from W (270°) as its preferred direction, with an offshore range of 225° to 315°. 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 Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head)?

The Ulladulla Bombie (Erries / Warden Head) scoring profile favors swell from SSE (100° to 196°), a swell-height range of 1.1m to 4.1m, and a reference period of 14s. These are model inputs, not guaranteed breaking-wave heights or a promise that the surf will suit every ability.
