Cronulla Point

Cronulla Point is a surf spot located in New South Wales, Australia. This spot is known for its right-hand waves breaking over a coral reef bottom, making it a regional classic for surfers. The wave length is typically less than 50 meters, and it can be surfed at all tides. Cronulla Point is highly consistent, attracting surfers of all experience levels, but it is also ultra crowded, so it’s important to check the surf etiquette when surfing here. The spot is accessible by train, with a short walk down the hill from the station to South Cronulla Beach, then heading right towards the rocks. Nearby surf spots include Cronulla Pools, Braymains, Shark Island, Harvey’s Little Point, and Cronulla. The area is rich in marine life, and it’s not uncommon to see dolphins sharing the waves. However, the crowd can be challenging, with many inexperienced surfers, or ‘billys,’ dropping in on waves. When planning your surf session, be sure to check the surf forecast and report, and use a map or webcam for real-time conditions. Whether you’re using a shortboard or a longboard, make sure to check your skills before paddling out to ensure the spot and conditions fit your surfing level. Respect the locals.
