Triggs Beach surf guide

Triggs Beach is a surf spot located in South Australia. It features a mix of reef and beach breaks, making it a local favorite for surfers looking for a variety of waves. This spot, along with its neatly defined areas known as Triggs 1 and 2, is at the end of Cliff Ave. The surrounding environment includes some additional scattered breaks that can pick up available swell, especially near the Onkaparinga rivermouth.

When it comes to surfing, Triggs Beach performs best with a strong SW swell. The optimal swell direction is from the SouthWest, but it can also handle swells from the South. The spot works well at swell sizes starting from around 1 ft (0.3 meters) and breaks over an uneven reef and sand bottom. The waves typically break both right and left, providing options for surfers. For the best sessions, look for mid to high tide with easterly winds. It's a spot that can cater to beginners, so if youโ€™re just starting out, you might find it suitable.

For those looking to explore further, just around the corner at the Onkaparinga rivermouth, you can find more scattered reef and beach breaks that may offer different wave experiences. The area can draw in more swell and has the potential to peel nicely, bringing more variety to your surf day. If you're planning to hit Triggs, keep these conditions in mind to make the most out of your session.
