Bashams Bommie

Bashams Bommie is a surf spot located in South Australia, Australia. This spot is known for its right-hand bombora reef break, which is bowly but not hollow. The takeoff is non-critical, and the wave starts to break quite small, making it a suitable spot for beginners. The bottom consists of rocks and sand, and the wave quality is considered normal. Bashams Bommie is almost totally uncrowded, providing a peaceful surfing experience. The wave length is less than 50 meters, and it sometimes breaks, so checking the surf forecast and report is essential before heading out. The spot is recommended for surfers from Adelaide who want to learn about reef waves before tackling more challenging spots like Yorkes. The best tide conditions are low and medium tides. Nearby surf spots include Frenchies, Chicken Run, Middleton Point, Knights, and Horseshoe Bay. To reach Bashams Bommie, head to Bashams main carpark, a popular whale-watching spot, and paddle straight out to the Bombora in the middle of the bay. It’s important to check the surf etiquette when a spot is crowded and always assess your skills before paddling out to ensure the spot and conditions match your surfing level. Respect the locals.
