Southside - Sawtell
Southside is a left-point break with sandy bottom, ideal for both bodyboarders and surfers. The spot works best at low and mid tide, with rising and falling tides providing optimal conditions. Access is straightforward, with instant access available from the headland, just a short walk from parking areas.
Located on the south side of the Sawtell headland, this surf spot features a rivermouth that can generate decent waves, particularly with northeast swells. While it caters to beginners, the shifting sandbars can lead to variable conditions. Caution is advised due to potential rips, especially during dropping tides. For those seeking a more manageable session, the patrolled main surf beach to the north offers easier waves. Overall, Southside is a fun and crowded spot, perfect for surfers looking to enjoy a lively atmosphere.
