Overview
About this Spot
Three Bays Coolum is a surf spot located in Queensland, Australia. This spot provides both left and right waves, making it versatile for surfers of various skill levels. The wave breaks over a combination of sand and rocks, and the best conditions are found at low to medium tide. The quality of the waves is considered normal, and the spot is suitable for surfers of all experience levels. The waves here are less than 50 meters in length, and the spot is not usually crowded, with only a few surfers in the water at any given time. It’s important to be aware of the localism that can occur at this spot, and to always respect the locals. Additionally, surfers should be cautious of the rip currents, especially when the waves are over 2 meters, as they can easily get caught in a cycle that is difficult to escape. There are three car parks available south of Point Perry to Point Arkwright, providing convenient access to the surf spot. Surfers are advised to check the surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots and to assess their skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match their surfing level. Remember to check the surf forecast and report before heading out, and consider using a map or webcam to get a better idea of the current conditions. Respect the locals.
