A-Frames surf guide

A-Frames, also known as Kandies Left, is a surf spot that attracts many surfers looking for some fun waves. This spot is pretty chill, with a large playing field that welcomes S swell, making it a good choice when other locations aren’t pulling in the right conditions. It's a place where boat crews love to hang out, sheltered in the safe anchorage, ready to catch some waves. With less daunting line-ups, A-Frames offers a good vibe for those wanting to enjoy a day on the water.

The waves here typically break over live coral, creating both left and right options for riding. You can expect swell sizes starting around 2ft (0.6 meters) up to larger sets. The lefts are generally what everyone’s after, but there are some fun rights as well. For the best experience, it’s good to wait for a low to mid tide, and the preferable wind direction is from the north. Although the waves aren’t too shallow, it's worth noting that if you get caught inside, you might face a long paddle out when the size picks up. This spot is best suited for intermediate surfers, so be ready to drop, snap, and tuck into those peaky waves.

While you’re out there, keep an eye on the swell and wind conditions. A-Frames handles various swell sizes well, but being aware of the optimal conditions can help you score better waves. With the right setup, it can be a super fun spot to ride when the conditions align just right.
