Surf Western Head

Surfing begins when the surfer paddles toward shore in an attempt to match the speed of the wave. Once the wave begins to carry the surfer forward, the surfer stands up and proceeds to ride the wave. The basic idea is to position the surfboard so it is just ahead of the breaking part (white water) of the wave. A common problem for beginners is being able to catch the wave at all.
Western Head Reef on the South Coast is a sheltered reef break that has quite reliable surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds blow from the north northeast with some shelter here from north winds. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell angle is from the northeast. A left hand reef. Take care of rocks in the line up.
Western Head is a 10 minute drive, along the coastline, west of Liverpool.  Here can be enjoyed some of the best surfing in the world.
