Wategos Beach is a sheltered bay that is protected from the larger swells that can hit the area during the winter months. This means that the water is generally calm and clear, which adds to the overall experience of surfing at this spot.

In addition to its great waves, Wategos Beach is surrounded by beautiful scenery, including lush vegetation and rocky cliffs. The beach is also well-maintained, with plenty of facilities for sportsmen and visitors.

While Wategos Beach can get crowded, especially during peak season, the atmosphere is generally friendly and welcoming, with surfers of all levels sharing the waves and enjoying the experience.

Several tips if you are a newbie:

  • Check the surf report and conditions before heading out.
  • Respect other participants by giving them plenty of space and waiting your turn.
  • Avoid catching the wave too close to the rocks to prevent injury or damage to your board.
  • Stay informed about any recent marine life sightings or warnings.
  • Consider taking a lesson with a qualified instructor.
  • Wear appropriate gear such as a wetsuit, leash, and wax.

Be patient and enjoy!
