Characteristics
  The swell around newcastle can get very big and ugly so you have to watch out for that.
Head for the southern corners or less exposed beaches if swell too big for your ability.
Newcastle has something for all surfers and gets consistent swell and has plenty of variety.
you can catch some hectic right handers mainly close-outs near shark alley but at south newcastle gets pretty good also around the cliff at bar susan gilmore gets good when it wants to be. from mase
