Strathy surf guide

Strathy is a beach break located in a relatively sheltered area, making it a decent spot for surfers looking to catch some waves. The beach has sand bottom breaks that can handle various swell sizes, giving options for different kinds of surf. It’s a place where you can find some action if the conditions are right.

The optimal swell direction for Strathy is from the north, but it also works well with west and northeast swells. The waves generally break left and right, catering to different preferences. Surfable sizes start from about 2 feet (0.6 meters), which makes it accessible for intermediate surfers. The beach can handle all tide heights – low, mid, and high – but the preferred wind direction is from the south to keep things clean.

To get to Strathy, park by the graveyard at the top of the hill, and then it’s just a walk down the dunes to the beach. This setup makes it easy to access the surf without too much hassle.
