Surfing Destinations in Australia

by Damian Papworth

Surfers of all nationalities all know that there are few countries in the world with surfing conditions quite as good as Australia’s, making the country a mecca for surfers worldwide. There are simply magnificent surf spots to be found all along the endless Australian coastline, with the beaches Down Under representing the very best that the world’s oceans have for us to enjoy. Beyond certain stretches of coast that are not suited to surfing because of natural formations (bays, harbors and so on) it is hard to find a single spot of beach that doesn’t entice surfers with excellent surf breaks…meaning that a trip to pretty much any part of coastal Australia will be worth a surfer’s while.

I have been surfing for 35 years in Hawaii with some of the most amazing surfers in the world. There are a lot of new surfers out there just starting out with stand up paddling and it is hard for them to understand what it the aggravation that surfers feel. However, we can all figure it out and get all in the water, so take a moment to think about it.
