Drownies surf guide

Drownies, also known as Tombstones, is a surf spot accessible only by boat. It’s located in a pretty chill area, making it a good destination for surfers looking to catch some waves. The spot has a laid-back vibe, which is perfect for those who want to enjoy the surf without too much fuss.

The waves at Drownies are primarily lefts that start off with an easy roll-in but quickly pick up speed as they travel over the exposed live coral. The spot works best with a northeast swell, and it can handle swell sizes starting at around 2ft (0.6 meters). For the best results, the wind should be coming from the south, and it’s suitable to surf during low, mid, and high tides. This makes it a spot that can cater to different tide conditions, but it’s generally more favorable for intermediate surfers looking for a decent challenge without being too extreme.

Since Drownies is a reef break, it’s essential to be aware of the conditions before heading out. The spot is known for its fast and hollow waves, making it a great place to test your skills. If you’re planning a trip, just make sure you’ve got a boat to get there, as it’s the only way to access the waves.
