North Wall

North Wall is a surf spot located in New South Wales, Australia. This spot is known for its wedging waves on the Mid-North Coast, offering both left and right waves. The wave direction is influenced by the sand and rock bottom, making it a regional classic. Surfers of all levels can enjoy this spot, but it’s important to check your skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match your surfing level. The waves here are less than 50 meters in length and are very consistent, attracting a crowded lineup. It’s a real locals’ spot, and the atmosphere is relaxed, but respect the locals and adhere to surf etiquette to avoid any issues. The easiest way to reach North Wall is by paddling the river just north of Town Beach, but be mindful of the tide to avoid being swept out to sea. Parking is available near North Beach, and you can also paddle across the river mouth. The spot is known for its rips, undertow, and the presence of rocks and sharks, so caution is advised. It’s one of the best beaches in Port Macquarie, and while it can be a fun wave, it can also be challenging, with the potential to break boards when conditions are good or shallow. Always check the surf forecast, report, and map before heading out, and consider using a webcam to assess the conditions. Respect the locals.
