About this Spot

Dixon Park is a surf spot located in New South Wales, Australia. This surf spot offers both left and right waves, making it versatile for surfers. The bottom is composed of sand and rocks, and it can be surfed at all tides. The quality of the wave is considered a regional classic, and it caters to surfers of all experience levels. The waves at Dixon Park are regular, with a length of less than 50 meters, and the spot is typically not crowded, with only a few surfers present. Nearby surf spots include Bar Beach Newcastle, Bar Reef, Pogos, Ladies, and Bombie. Dixon Park is easily accessible, with parking available in a car park in front of the beach. However, it’s important to be mindful of localism, as the atmosphere can be a bit tense, and it’s best not to drop in on locals. There are a few bodyboarders and malriders, but goatboaters are generally not welcome. The spot is shark protected, providing an added sense of security. Dixon Park is a good spot to learn to surf when the swell is not too high, but when the swell is up, it’s best left to more experienced surfers. Always check the surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots, and be sure to check your skills before paddling out to make sure the spot and conditions fit your surfing level. Respect the locals.
