Childers Cove Mepunga is a rugged reef cove west of Warrnambool, with a fast right-heavy wave, lefts on the inside, and a short reef crossing from the car park at Childers Road. It is a serious Far West Coast setup with power, sharks, and a crowd that builds quickly on good days.

Live updates
Northeast offshore wind is the clean lane, southwest swell is the main guide swell, and falling tide is a little cleaner even though the spot can work at all stages.
The spot is a solid fallback when nearby Japs is smaller, and rocks, sharks, crowding, and a closeout section at the end are the main hazards.
Park at the first Childers Road car park, walk to the beach, then paddle out across the back of the cove and over the reef line.
Stop guessing and start surfing. WaveWise analyzes live data to find your best upcoming sessions so you spend less time planning and more time paddling out.
