The Wave

East is the clean offshore lane, and west-northwest swell is the main trigger when Cable Beach starts to break.

Tide matters for beach shape and access because the sand flat narrows hard on high water and opens up on the low.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Use the main Cable Beach Road West access or the north-of-the-rocks vehicle ramp, and keep an eye on the patrolled swimming zones, the seasonal 4WD traffic on the beach, and the tide before driving on the sand.

Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
