Ward Avenue surf guide

Ward Avenue is located just north of Cleone. It leads surfers to a peaky, rocky beachbreak that tends to work best during low tides, especially with a southeast wind. This spot is more popular in the summer and early autumn, offering decent conditions for those looking to catch some waves. It usually sees high consistency in smaller swells, which makes it a reliable choice when the conditions are right. Crowds are rarely an issue here, so it's a good place to enjoy a less hectic surf session.

This beachbreak can handle swells coming from the south and north, with sizes starting around 1 foot (about 0.3 meters). The waves can break over both rock ledges and sand, giving a variety of options depending on the tide and swell. Surfers can expect both left and right wave directions, which adds to the versatility of the spot. The best time to surf here is usually at mid tide, and southeast winds are preferred for optimal conditions.

Overall, Ward Avenue has a laid-back vibe with good potential for fun sessions, especially when the swell is right. It's also worth noting that it works well with consistent smaller swells, making it a reliable choice for those looking to practice or just enjoy some time in the water.
