White Sands Surf Forecast Guide

White Sands is a hollow, fast beachbreak tucked in the shadow of a cement works. It breaks over a mix of boulders and sand and peels both left and right, though it's a fickle spot that won't turn on every day. The surroundings are rippy and rocky.

When It Works

It draws swell from the northeast through east (NE-E), with northeast (NE) the best match. The break is usable from 0.6 m / 2 ft to 1.8 m / 6 ft, and when it lines up you get a hollow, fast wall.

Wind and Tide

Look for southwest (SW) offshore wind. It works on mid and high tide, with a rising tide generally the better call.

Local Tips

This one suits intermediate surfers.

Access

There's a car park, with restrooms and camping on hand.
