Follow the directions to Sandy Bay, park, then walk onto the beach, then walk into the water, then get onto your board, then paddle out to the break, then surf it.
Yep a fun wave but if you strike it right (not often) the biggest waves come from the SE and sitting on the hill watching them peel around the headland is a site to behold.Then sitting on the beach for 20 minutes plucking up courage to go out...those were the days....

talk it up
sandy bay is not what all the others are talking it up to be. it is like any other beach break has itīs days but because of headlands it missis out on a lot of swell. the right hand corner Ļkiddies cornerĻ has a semi consistant bank because of the rocks. it is popular with the surfers from that area because it is the only consistent wave in that perticular area to get to another decent beach break that picks up any swell is an hour drive so all the surfers from town go here, so itīs packed, and itīs a small beach with an easy paddle out so thay love it. i will admit i have had some real fun surfs out here, but arriving at the beach at 5.30 in the morning, still dark on a weekday and having 5 cars also there is what will kill a good surf here. there is also a red alge that is like a soup at times that will cause some serious pain if it getīs in your eyes. have fun at the scunge
