Surf: The Miami stretch used to be a bit of a quiet spot away from the crowds, but these days nowhere is empty along the Goldie. Beat the wind by getting up early and avoid high tide when the waves go slack and the outside/inside channel cuts length of ride. As the long beach curves eastwards towards Burleigh Heads, the aspect improves for cleaner conditions in S winds, but any SE-S swell will slightly by-pass Miami and head towards Surfers. Environment: All facilities at the North Burleigh SLSC.
