Description

Crescent Head - Mid North Coast, New South Wales Crescent Head features a beach break with both right and left-hand waves, characterized by a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The waves can be hollow and fun, working well at all tides, particularly during a rising tide. Access is straightforward, with instant access available within 5 minutes of parking. This iconic surf spot has been a favorite since the 1950s, drawing surfers from all over. While the scenic coastline offers a beautiful backdrop, be cautious of crowded conditions during weekends and school holidays. The nearby river mouth provides opportunities to see dolphins, but surfers should remain vigilant about potential shark sightings. Although the waves can be enjoyable, this spot is better suited for intermediate to advanced surfers due to the presence of rocks and the overall conditions.
