Dolphin Point surf guide

Dolphin Point is a surf spot located by Burril Lake. It's known for its unique features and varied surf conditions. While it's not the most famous spot out there, it has its own charm. The area can see decent swells, especially when conditions align just right. Make sure you're familiar with the layout and the surrounding environment, as it can be a bit tricky to navigate at times.

When the swell comes in from the NorthEast or East, Dolphin Point can handle sizes around 3 feet (about 1 meter). The waves here are primarily lefts that break over an uneven reef, creating some hollow and barrelling sections, especially at low to mid tide but also at high tide. The best winds are from the West, which can clean up the surf a bit. It's worth noting that this spot is generally suited for experienced surfers due to the nasty slabs that can catch you off guard.

Keep in mind that there are also some beach peaks to the north, which might offer a different vibe if you're looking for a change. Just remember to check the conditions before you paddle out, as things can shift quickly at Dolphin Point. If you're up for it, this spot can give you a good ride, but be ready for the challenges it brings.
