Best Beaches to Make the Most of the Yamba Surf

Yamba is one of the best little surf towns on the Australian coast, with several great surf spots for people of all ages and abilities. The town is very surfer friendly, with many surf shops where you can pick up gear, as well as many surf schools offering lessons and group surf tours for beginners. Yamba is also very family friendly, so if you have kids that are wanting to learn how to surf, this is the perfect place to take them. Here are the best surfing beaches in Yamba.

Angourie Point

This is by far the best place to surf in Yamba, and it draws surfing enthusiasts from around the world. In fact, it is actually a protected surfing reserve, one of the only ones in Australia. The waves are consistently very strong, and this beach is should only be used by those with considerable surfing experience. Located south of downtown Yamba, you will need to drive or take the 380 bus to get there.

Back Beach Angourie

This spacious beach is located south of Angourie Point, and is a perfect spot for intermediate surfers. Depending on the weather, there are plenty of good waves to keep you entertained, but they aren’t as challenging as the ones on Angourie Point. The condition of the waves here can vary, so check online before you go.

Pippi Beach

This is probably the most used beach in Yamba because of the incredible ocean views. There are good surf spots here directly in front of the beach or on the north end of it. The waves are particularly good in the summer, when an annual surfing contest is held.

Spookies Beach

Located north of Angourie Point, this beach is a great spot for beginner and intermediate surfers. This beach is particularly popular with families, because it is a great place to teach kids how to surf. The waves are very soft, but still strong enough to get a really good wave.

Main Beach

This is another beach that is great for beginners. The waves are usually very gently, and the area is patrolled by lifeguards during the summer holidays, so you won’t have to worry about your kids getting into trouble out on the water.

Turners Beach

Located north of the iconic Yamba lighthouse, this beach offers surfing at the south and north ends. The gentle swells make this a great place for beginner and intermediate surfers.
