Hells Mouth - Main Beach surf guide

Hells Mouth - Main Beach is a popular surf spot that stretches about 7 kilometers along the coast. It's known for its average beach breaks, making it a decent choice for beginner surfers looking to practice. The spot is often busy, so be prepared to share the waves with others, especially during peak times.

The surf here works best with a south or west swell and can handle sizes around 2 feet (0.6 meters). You can expect both left and right waves, but the beach breaks can vary. Mid to high tide is generally the best time to paddle out, and if you can catch some north-east wind, you're in for a better session. The waves break over sand, so it's pretty forgiving for beginners learning the ropes.

Accessing Hells Mouth can be a bit tricky due to some rips present in the water, so keep that in mind while you're out there. It's best to park near the main access village of Llanengan at the southern end. Don't forget to watch out for jellyfish during the summer months; they're around and can be a nuisance.
