Apollo Bay surf guide

Surf: Heading back to the east side of Cape Otway through the beautiful National Park to Apollo Bay, where there is a right off the harbour breakwall and outside jetty that can handle moderate size and will line up a bit better with some E in the swell. Can peel a nice line during the low tide window. There are also some nicely protected beachies perfect for beginners and escaping large, stormy conditions. Around the headland, Marengo offers a brace of more exposed reefs, a righthand point and some changeable, small swell beachies. Environment: It's by no means the best break around, but there is always someone on it when it is breaking.
