St Andrews East is a beachbreak located in a scenic area, popular among surfers looking for varied conditions. The spot can deliver some good waves, especially when the swell is right, but it can also be inconsistent. It’s best suited for those who enjoy a mix of fun and less predictable surf.
The optimal swell direction here is from the Northeast, with additional swells coming in from the Southeast. It can handle swell sizes around 2ft (0.6m) but can get a lot better when larger swells come in. The waves at St Andrews East can break both left and right, making it a versatile spot. For the best experience, try to surf during mid to high tide, and keep an eye on the wind - a Southwest breeze is preferred to get the best out of the waves.
Access is pretty straightforward; you can paddle out by the harbour wall, which is a convenient spot to get into the water. Parking is available in the St Mary’s Street area, so you don’t have to worry too much about finding a spot. Just be prepared for conditions that can change, so keep your options open and have fun out there!
