Surf Shelly beach

Shelly Beach - Port Macquarie Shelly Beach features a beach break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The spot offers ordinary to fun power, making it ideal for various skill levels. It works well at all tides, with optimal conditions when the swell comes from the southeast or east, and the wind blows from the southeast or east. Located in the heart of Port Macquarie, access is straightforward via Pacific Drive, with instant access to the beach. The north end is recommended for better swell and fewer rocks, while the southern end is less favorable due to a rock pool frequented by less experienced surfers. The atmosphere can get crowded, especially on weekends, but weekdays often see fewer surfers. Be mindful of local etiquette and potential hazards like rips and rocks, ensuring a respectful and safe surfing experience.
