South Point is a surf spot that caters mainly to intermediate surfers, offering a solid left-hand wave that breaks in the lee of the windswept point. It's best known as a go-to alternative when North Point is too heavy. The wave rolls over uneven reef and provides a sloping wall, allowing for some long, drawn-out maneuvers. Although it's not as high-quality as some nearby spots, South Point shines during big SouthWest swells when the wind is light, keeping the wave smooth and manageable.

The wave works well with SouthWest and NorthWest swells and can comfortably handle swell sizes around 4 feet (1.2 meters). It tends to break over uneven reef, creating a point break that is perfect for practicing those roundhouse turns. For the best experience, surfers generally prefer low to mid or high tides. Most of the action happens on the left, and it's really about timing your ride when the conditions line up with a SouthEast wind for the best surf.

For beginners, there’s a spot inside the bay known as Hussa's, which sits on a sand-covered reef. This area gives beginner surfers a solid peak to practice on, while also providing a bit of assistance for point surfers heading back in after a long paddle. Just a heads up, South Point has a history—there was a fatal shark attack back in 2010, so it's worth being cautious about conditions, especially at dawn or dusk.
