Seal Island

Seal Island is a surf spot located in the Perth Area, Australia. This spot is known for providing both left and right waves, making it accessible for surfers of all experience levels. The waves break over a rocky bottom, and the best conditions are during low to medium tides. The surf quality is considered normal, with wave lengths typically less than 50 meters. The spot is not usually crowded, so you can enjoy the waves with just a few other surfers around.

Alternatively, you can paddle out about 3 kilometers, but be aware of the potential risk of shark encounters. There are man-made dangers such as buoys in the area, so caution is advised. Nearby surf spots include Whitfords Beach Outer Reefs, The Wall at Hillary’s, Sorrento Hungries, 3rd Groyne, and Mullaz.
