Description
Old Bar - New South Wales
Old Bar features a beach break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom mixed with rock. The spot typically offers ordinary power and works best at low to mid tide. Rips and undertow are present, making it essential for surfers to stay alert.
Located on the New South Wales coast, Old Bar is a popular destination for surfers seeking a variety of swell sizes. While it can be crowded on weekends, the vibe remains relaxed during the week. For those looking for bigger waves, the nearby 2nd Corner is a solid option. Access is straightforward, with clear signage from the highway. Adventurous surfers may venture north to Crowdy Head, where more exposed sandbars await, though caution is advised due to the presence of sharks. Overall, Old Bar can be a mixed bag, but it often delivers fun sessions worth the visit.
