Werri Beach and Point

With a lagoon at the northern end and an ocean pool at the southern end, Werri Beach is the perfect place to spend a day.

Distinguished by consistent surf breaks at both ends of the beach, there's often a nice wave peeling off one of the headlands. Smooth even when the summer nor'easter is blowing, the south point starts to break across the rocky reef that extends from the headland, then generates a fatter wave closer to shore that's beloved by long boarders.

Beach breaks to the south are dependent on variable sandbanks, but there's often a decent wave right in front of the famous Werri Beach Fish Shop three-quarters of the way down the beach.
