The Mystery of Old Woman Island

Old Woman Island - South Side

Old Woman Island South Side sits on Mudjimba Island's south face as a rare offshore left. A solid south pulse wakes it up, winter is the most reliable season, and north wind is the clean side-offshore lane. Calm-day paddle or boat access keeps the session more mission than casual beach surf. Expect an inconsistent but memorable line, plus rocks and sharks in the mix. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Old Woman Island - South Side in Queensland.

Lineup Guide

Mid tide usually gives the cleanest read over the point, while low water shows more rock and high water softens the takeoff.

Treat it as an offshore-island mission rather than a casual beach session: paddle or boat access only on calm days, and the lineup can build quickly when a pulse lines up.
