Miami surf guide

Miami is a popular surf spot located along the Gold Coast of Australia. It used to be a quieter area where surfers could find some space, but these days, it attracts more crowds. The beach stretches eastward and offers a variety of waves, making it a go-to for both new and experienced surfers. It’s a friendly place for anyone looking to catch some waves.

The best time to surf Miami is when the swell is coming from the East, with also some decent action from the NorthEast and SouthEast. The waves here generally handle swell sizes of around 2ft (0.6 meters), breaking over sand. You can expect both left and right-breaking waves, which is great for practicing your skills. To make the most of your surf session, aim to hit the water during low to mid tide and try to catch the waves when the wind is coming from the West for cleaner conditions.

One thing to keep in mind is that Miami is best suited for beginners, so if you're new to surfing, you’ll fit right in. The facilities at the North Burleigh Surf Life Saving Club are convenient for surfers looking for amenities. Overall, Miami serves up a mix of fun waves, making it a solid choice for locals and tourists alike.
