Description

Old Woman Ledge - Mudjimba Island Old Woman Ledge features powerful, hollow, and fast reef waves that break to the right over a rocky coral bottom. This spot is best surfed at mid to high tide during a rising tide, with optimal conditions coming from southeast to east swells and west to south winds. Access requires a 2 km paddle from Mudjimba, or a boat ride can be arranged. Located just off the coast of Mudjimba, this surf spot is known for its challenging conditions, attracting experienced bodyboarders rather than traditional surfers. The rocky base can lead to serious wipeouts, with barnacles and sharp rocks posing risks. The atmosphere is notably sharky, adding to the thrill for those willing to tackle the waves. With minimal crowds during the week and weekend, Old Woman Ledge offers a unique surfing experience for those who can handle its demanding nature.
