Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
Right-hand point on the Surf Coast, a long mellow ride of 150 to 300 m, best on the dropping low tide with SW swell. The local surf school calls it one of the most forgiving waves around.
Surfable all year. Autumn (Sep-Nov) is the best season: powerful swells, water still mild, less crowd.
Ideal for starting out or longboarding. Mellow waves, little current, surf school usually nearby.
Easy beach access, parking usually nearby. Ask locally about seasonal currents.
Wear an appropriate wetsuit. Scout the currents before you paddle out. Respect the locals and right-of-way. Check weather and tides.
At Torquay Point, tide isn't a deciding factor: the spot stays surfable across most tide states. Focus on the swell and the wind instead.
Torquay Point is rather accessible to beginners when the waves stay small and the wind is light. Still, check currents, tide and local guidelines before entering.
The ideal wind at Torquay Point comes broadly from North-West: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Torquay Point, you can also check conditions at URBNSURF, Ouano, Île des Pins. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
