Macauley's - Thirroul, New South Wales Macauley's features a beach break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The waves are known to be hollow, fast, and powerful, making it suitable for surfers of varying skill levels. Access is straightforward, with instant access within 5 minutes from the car park. Located just south of Thirroul Beach, Macauley's offers a laid-back atmosphere ideal for enjoying consistent surf conditions. The spot works well at all tides, with optimal conditions during rising and falling tides, particularly when the swell comes from the east or northeast and the wind from the west or southwest. While the beach can be relatively empty during the week, expect a few surfers on weekends. Be cautious of rips, undertow, and rocks, as well as the occasional shark sighting. Overall, Macauley's is a great choice for those seeking fun waves and a relaxed vibe.
