25.01.26 | Belhaven Bay

Belhaven Bay is offering mixed conditions today, with variable surf across the beach depending on tide and wind. As with most east coast breaks, conditions can change quickly, so flexibility is key.

Today’s overview:

  • Wave size: Small to moderate
  • Best tide: Mid to high tide
  • Wind: Light to moderate
  • Suitability: Beginners and improvers in the right spots

For beginners, sheltered sections of the bay can offer manageable whitewater and a good learning environment when the swell is small. More experienced surfers may find cleaner lines around mid to high tide if the wind behaves.

If you’re unsure whether conditions are right for your level, get in touch before heading down – we’re always happy to advise.
