Bungan is a small beach that sits at the base of some cliffs, requiring a bit of a trek to get down. It's not the easiest spot to reach, but once you’re there, it offers decent surfing when the conditions line up. The beach is best for those who don’t mind a little walk and enjoy a more secluded environment. Just be aware that it can get crowded on weekends, especially during summer when parking can be a bit tricky in the side streets.

The surf at Bungan tends to be punchy, particularly when there’s a moderate NorthEast swell, which is the sweet spot for the wave here. You’ll find more action at the north end where the rocks help maintain the sand, creating a point-style left on the right day. On the contrary, the south end can be more shorepound, especially with a strong Southeast swell that brings out some slabby right-handers. The beach handles wave sizes well, typically in the range of 3ft (about 0.9 meters). It's a good spot for beginners, as the beach break offers both lefts and rights, making it a fun experience for those just starting out. Low to mid-tide is preferred, and the ideal wind comes from the Northwest.

When you decide to surf Bungan, just remember that it might not always look as good from the top of the cliff as it does in the water. It's definitely worth the trip if you're in the area and looking for a wave that’s generally less popular and can surprise you with its quality. Just keep an eye on the swell and tides for the best results.
