About this Spot

Blue Bay is a surf spot located in New South Wales, Australia. Known for its right-hand wave direction, the spot features a coral reef bottom, making it a regional classic for intermediate surfers. The waves break at medium and high tide, with lengths ranging from 150 to 300 meters. Blue Bay is not overly crowded, typically attracting only a few surfers, which can be appealing for those looking to avoid busy lineups. However, localism can be an issue, so it’s important to respect the locals and be mindful of surf etiquette. The spot is protected from strong winds, providing a more consistent surfing experience. Surfers can access Blue Bay with a simple walk from Weimae Parade. It’s crucial to check your skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match your surfing level. The area is known for its rocks and urchins, so caution is advised when entering and exiting the water. Additionally, the presence of sharks means surfers should be vigilant and not hesitate when jumping off the rocks. Nearby surf spots include Blue Bay Shorey, The Entrance, Shelly Reef, Shelly Beach, and North Ennie, offering a variety of options for those exploring the region.
