Forecast
As of:
Park or stay near Flat Rock Road / Flat Rock Tent Park access, use west winds and east quadrant swell, and treat the tide as secondary: the middle of the cycle reads a touch cleaner but the spot stays broadly surfable.
Expect rock pools, family traffic, school-holiday patrols, rips, sharks, and a lineup that can get crowded when conditions line up.
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.
