Scott Point surf guide

Scott Point is located at the end of 90 Mile and is known for attracting adventurous surfers. This spot is more for those who really know what they're doing out there, as the conditions can be a bit tricky. Most of the time, it can get pretty wind and swell-pounded, leaving it quite messy. You might find some action with a right-hand wave tucked in the lee of the headland, but overall, it's not the most consistent spot around.

The ideal swell direction for Scott Point is Northwest, and it can handle swell sizes of around 2 feet (0.6 meters). You can catch waves that break over sandy bottoms, with both left and right-handed waves available. It's best to head out during low, mid, or even high tide when the winds are coming from the Northeast. Just keep in mind that this spot suits intermediate surfers the best, so be prepared for some challenges.

When you're out and about at Scott Point, you might notice that you're usually sharing the area with a few fishermen. So, it's not overly crowded with other surfers, giving you a bit of space to work with. Just remember that it's a good idea to pack your 4WD to get there, as the access can be a bit rough.
