Pyramids

Pyramids is a surf spot located in South West Australia, Australia, near the suburb of Dawesville, which is part of Mandurah. This spot is known for its a-frame waves, providing both left and right breaks, making it suitable for surfers of all levels. The sea bottom consists of sand and rocks, and the waves are best at medium tide. The wave length is typically less than 50 meters, and the spot is known to be crowded, especially with young bodyboarders and surfers around mid-day. The surf spot is easily accessible by taking a right turn off Dawesville Bridge onto a beaten track, leading to a car park. Pyramids is popular, but localism can be an issue, particularly around the nearby Mandurah Wedge. The presence of rips, undertow, and rocks requires surfers to be cautious, and the area is known for occasional shark sightings. On smaller swells, the spot is beginner-friendly, but larger swells demand more experience. It’s advisable to check your skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match your surfing level. Crowds can be a downside, so arriving early might help you find a less crowded bank or small reef. Respect the locals and always check the surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots. Remember to check the surf forecast, report, map, and webcam for the best conditions before heading out.
