Double Island Point surf guide

Double Island Point is a laid-back surf spot located on the Queensland coast. It features beautiful scenery and is known for its relatively remote access, which keeps the crowds down. You'll need a 4WD to get there, and while that can put some people off, it also means you’ll often have the waves to yourself. It's a good place for surfers looking for sessions away from more crowded beaches.

This spot is great for catching long rights around the lighthouse, and you might find some occasional lefts on the beachbreak. The optimal swell direction is from the east, with northeast and southeast swells working well too. It handles swell sizes starting at 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) and can produce quality waves over boulders and sand. From experience, surfers tend to prefer southeast winds and low to mid tide heights. It’s mostly suited for intermediate surfers, so make sure you're comfortable out there.

While the waves can be great, keep in mind that rips and the presence of sharks are factors here, as with many surf spots. The isolation might not be for everyone, but if you’re looking for a more authentic surf experience with a bit of adventure, this could be a good choice. Plus, the surrounding area often has some nice sandbars along the beach highway beside the Cooloola National Park if you’re up for exploring beyond the main point.

Readme

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
