Byron Bay's most iconic wave and a Mecca for longboarders worldwide. A long, peeling right-hand point break that wraps around the headland from Wategos to Clarkes Beach, offering rides of up to 300 metres on the best days. Works best on east to northeast swells with light southwest winds. Expect crowds — this is one of Australia's most popular waves.
