Cayton Bay - Point surf guide

Cayton Bay - Point is a surf spot located in a quiet residential area, known for its somewhat challenging conditions. To access the beach, surfers need to walk down a tricky path through the woods. Keep in mind that street parking is extremely limited, so it's best to arrive early or consider other transport options.

The surf here is primarily a left point break that's known for grinding, heavy waves. It works best with a north swell and can handle swell sizes up to about 2 meters (6 ft). The first section presents a super-shallow ledge, which requires an air drop, leading into a fast barrel section. After that, it mellows out a bit into a whackable wall that wraps into the bay. While it can be fun, be aware that the spot can get rippy and rocky, which makes it more suited for expert surfers. South-west winds are preferred, and high tide is the best time to catch the waves.

Overall, Cayton Bay - Point has its quirks and isn't for everyone. The combination of tricky entry and busy conditions means it's crucial to know what you're doing out there. Just be prepared for a bit of a walk and keep an eye on parking!
