Austinmer's main beach and the smaller Little Austi to the north make this a lively Illawarra surf zone, with a peaky beachbreak, a right-hand reef line on the beach's south end, and enough consistency to stay useful through the year. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Little Austi and Main Beach in New South Wales.
Forecast
As of:
NW to W winds are clean, east to northeast swell is the main lane, and you use tide only after checking whether the north sandbar and south-end reef are actually standing up.
Watch the shallow, rippy ends, the rocks at the beach edges, and the summer crowd at the main beach; Little Austi is quieter but still exposed.
