Garbage Dump surf guide

Garbage Dump is a surf spot that has its quirks, and you’ll find it far away from the usual crowded beaches. Located in a less popular area, this spot can offer some mellow waves with the right conditions. Don’t expect a pristine paradise here; it’s more about getting a few fun rides rather than chasing perfect sets.

The surf here mainly consists of a wrapping left that breaks over a mix of rock ledge and sand, making it suitable for intermediate surfers. The ideal swell direction comes from the west, with workable conditions also coming from the south-west. It can handle swell sizes starting at around 2ft (0.6 meters). Since the waves break nicely in these conditions, you can enjoy both lefts and occasional rights, especially during calm winds from the east. For the best experience, swing by during low to mid tide as the waves seem to perform better.

Since it’s not a super popular spot, crowds can vary, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself alone or with just a handful of surfers. The mix of wave types and the fact that it’s not a go-to location means you can have a nice session without the usual hassle. Just keep an eye on the wind and swell conditions before you head out, and you might just score some decent waves.
