Western Australia is known throughout the world as one of the better locations to go for surfing. We have all sorts of breaks, ranging from the standard beach right through to massive reef breaks and even the deep water surfing breaks. There is a lot of secrecy surrounding the best locations in Western Australia, so be sure to look around to find what you want! Western Australia has good surfing in most locations, ranging from Kalbarri to Lucky Bay, Smiths Beach, Dunsborough, Margaret River, Augusta and Denmark.

By speaking to the locals though, you will soon find out where the better breaks are, even if they are a little more 'used'. The South West of WA has some amazing surfing, which is why Margaret River has annual surfing competitions. There are days where you can get 8 metre waves, right off the beach of Margaret River. Venture out further into the ocean and you can see some absolutely huge waves, but that is for the full on professionals!

Smiths Beach is just around the corner from Margaret River, and this has some decent surf when the weather picks up. Of course, it pays to get out and have a drive around. The point at Smiths Beach is usually pretty good, and then a bit further north at Yallingup the waves can be absolutely monstrous. The great thing about this area is that regardless of where you are, you can always find some reasonable waves within a 30km or so drive.
