Golf Course Reef is situated near Ulladulla, a busy fishing port and a popular spot for surfers on the South Coast. This area is known for its variety of surf breaks, and Golf Course Reef has a dedicated following among locals. It’s a spot that attracts surfers looking for some solid waves, but it’s important to note that respect goes a long way here, given the conditions and the crowd that can show up.

The surf at Golf Course Reef works best with swells coming from the East, specifically from the NorthEast and SouthEast. It can handle swell sizes up to around 6ft (1.8 meters). The waves here are primarily lefts, breaking over an uneven reef, which can create some challenging rides. If you’re aiming for the best conditions, look for a west wind and be prepared to surf during low, mid, or high tide. This spot is more suited for expert surfers due to the heavy paddle out and the technical nature of the waves, especially when they get bigger.

To access Golf Course Reef, you can drive through the golf course or park in the nearby residential streets. Just keep in mind that during peak times, the area can get crowded, so it's a good idea to be patient and respectful of other surfers in the water.
