Blackfellows Point is a surf spot on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, near Eden. It’s a scenic, more exposed headland-style break that tends to work best when there’s a solid south to southeast swell running through the region.

General character

Wave type: Reef/rocky point-style setup
Best swell: South to southeast
Best wind: Light offshore or light northwest to westerly winds
Skill level: More suited to intermediate to advanced surfers because of the reefy, occasionally fickle nature and the potential for strong wave energy
Crowds: Usually quieter than major beach breaks, but conditions are less consistent and can be localized

What it’s like

Blackfellows Point is known for producing clean, punchy waves when the swell lines up, with waves that can offer a bit of shape and power. It’s the kind of spot that can be really good on the right tide and swell angle, but not every day. Because it sits in an exposed coastal area, surf conditions can change quickly with wind and swell direction.

Considerations

Reef/rock hazards can be present, especially at lower tides
Tide sensitivity: often works better on mid to higher tides, but this can vary
Access and conditions: coastal exposure means currents, chop, and size can build fast
Check locally: conditions, entry points, and hazards can vary, so local knowledge is valuable
