The Wave
NW is the clean wind, SW swell is the stable pulse, and mid to high tide is the working window.
The takeoff is short and the wave can get crowded on clean days.

Bird Rock
Bird Rock is the western-end Jan Juc reef break near Torquay: a short, punchy right-hand setup tucked into the Surf Coast cliffs, with a takeoff that can turn hollow and fast when the reef lines up. It is one of the named Jan Juc reef markers surfers watch from the lookout and the beach. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Bird Rock in Victoria.
