Mainside surf guide

Mainside is a surf spot located at scenic Cape Zanpa, known for its unique waves and beautiful surroundings. This area attracts bodyboarders and surfers alike, thanks to its range of breaks. To access Mainside, you'll need to park at the lighthouse and take a bit of a walk, so be prepared for a trek before you hit the water.

The surf at Mainside is best with a north swell direction, although it can also work with northwest swells. It typically handles swell sizes from around 2 feet (0.6 meters) up. The waves break over live coral, creating both left and right reef breaks. For the best experience, it's advisable to surf around mid to high tide. The spot tends to favor east winds, making for cleaner conditions. However, this spot is definitely for experts, as the waves can be challenging.

Aside from the surfing, it's a great spot for taking in the views while you wait for your next set. Just keep in mind that this place can get crowded with experienced surfers looking to score those tubey rights. So, if you're up for a challenge and some quality waves, Mainside might just be the place for you.
