About this Spot

Iceys is a surf spot located in New South Wales, Australia. Known for its rocky bottom and left-hand wave direction, Iceys is a spot that attracts intermediate surfers and bodyboarders. The wave at Iceys can appear fat at first, but quickly transforms into a steep drop with an instant barrel, making it a challenging yet rewarding spot for those who can handle fast take-offs. Surfers should be cautious of the reef and the presence of sharks in the area. The spot is often frequented by locals, and while it can get crowded, it offers a unique experience with its scenic surroundings, including a hill and a lighthouse in view. Access to Iceys can be gained by walking from the Soldiers Beach area or by driving up the hill and taking a sketchy path or stairs down. The wave length is less than 50 meters and it breaks best at medium to high tide. It’s important to check the surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots and to assess your skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match your surfing level. Nearby surf spots include Big Bommie, Backdoor, Minis, Norah’s Point, and Rocky. Respect the locals.
