Remarkable Caves is located south of Port Arthur and is known for its unique beauty and as a spot for surfers. It's not just a tourist destination; the area offers some decent low-tide peaks, especially when the conditions are right. The bay is a bit secluded, with scattered rocks and reef around. At high tide, the caves can fill up with water, making it necessary to either walk or paddle to access the surf spots.
The best surf here occurs with south to southwest swells, with an optimal direction coming from the southwest. The spot handles swell sizes starting from about 2 ft (0.6 m), which makes it quite friendly for intermediate surfers. You can expect waves to break over uneven reef and sand, creating both left and right wave directions to enjoy. The best time to surf is during low to mid-tide, and it’s ideal when the wind is coming from the north.
When planning your surf session, just remember that the caves can be tricky. Avoid navigating them at high tide with some swell, as the water can get rough. It's a good spot for those looking to have a fun surf without too much crowd, but a bit of caution is always recommended.
