Lawsons Bay surf guide

Lawsons Bay is located in the town of Kailashgiri and is known for having one of Visag’s better right-hand breaks. The surf can stretch over a distance of more than 500 meters from take-off to the beach. The outside waves tend to be glassy for the best rides, and there are some rock suck-outs that can be a bit intimidating. However, these features also help create some powerful sections of the wave, making it an interesting spot for surfers looking for a challenge.

The spot handles swell sizes starting at around 1ft (0.3 meters) and can work well with north-east and south-west swell directions. You’ll find it breaking over rock ledge and sand, which gives it a mix of textures. Lawsons Bay is mainly a point break that breaks to the right, and it’s suitable for various tide heights—low, mid, and high. For the best surfing experience, aim for west winds. While Lawsons Bay can be fun, it’s also a good spot for beginners looking to work on their skills.

When surfing here, keep an eye on the backwash action close to shore after a series of cutbacks. It can add some excitement but also requires a bit of skill to navigate safely. Overall, it’s a decent spot to hit up, especially when conditions align just right.
