Lindie's Point is a newly discovered river mouth break, and its waves are essentially man-made: local government engineers opened up the estuary mouth to prevent flooding during the rainy season, and left and right sandbanks formed as a result. Both sides break over sand, so the banks can shift, and the rips running through the mouth are strong.
When It Works
The break draws swell from north through east, with northeast (NE) swell the best match. Left and right peel off the rivermouth sandbanks, giving you a choice of direction on the right day. It works from 0.6 m / 2 ft to 1.8 m / 6 ft.
Wind and Tide
Look for west (W) offshore wind to keep the faces clean. The mouth breaks across low, mid, and high tide, so you have a wide window, with a rising tide generally the better call.
Local Tips
The waves here suit beginners, but treat the strong rips through the rivermouth with respect and pick your spot on the sandbank carefully.
Access
Lindie's Point is a roughly 15-minute walk from Bay's Inn.
