Surf North point

North Point - Rottnest Island North Point features powerful left-breaking waves over a reef bottom composed of coral and sharp rocks, with a sandy base. This spot is accessible via a short 5-15 minute walk from Parakeet Bay, and it remains relatively uncrowded, making it an ideal escape from the busier areas of Rottnest Island. The wave is best surfed at mid to high tide, with optimal conditions arising from a swell coming from the north, northwest, or west, and winds from the south, southwest, or southeast. Surfers should be cautious of potential dangers such as urchins, rips, rocks, and sharks. Despite its proximity to settlement, North Point often goes unnoticed, providing a hidden gem for locals and visitors alike.
