Baggies surf guide

Baggies is a popular surf spot located at Warner Beach, known for its punchy and consistent waves. The area is favored by local surfers and can get pretty crowded, especially on the weekends. It attracts a mix of surfers, from beginners to more experienced riders, due to its variety of peaks along the beach that can accommodate different skill levels.

The surf at Baggies works best on southeast swells, but it can handle swells from the northeast and southwest as well. The spot is capable of managing swell sizes starting from about 1ft (0.3 meters) and can go up to head-high for more experienced surfers. Waves break over uneven reef and sand, with both left and right rides available. When it's on, you'll find that the waves are punchy, especially on the right day with northwest winds. Low to high tide can be favorable here, making it a versatile spot for catching waves.

It's important to note that despite being a good spot for beginners, Baggies can get busy, so it's wise to be aware of your surroundings and respect the local surfers. The vibe can be laid-back, but weekends can see an influx of surfers looking to catch some fun waves, which might make the lineup a bit hectic.
