Cuttagee (Far South Coast, NSW, Australia) is a scenic surf spot tucked near Bermagui on the far south coast of New South Wales. It’s known for its beautiful natural setting, with a long stretch of sand, nearby headlands, and the calm waters of Cuttagee Lake right behind the beach.
Surf characteristics
- Beach break: Cuttagee is primarily a sand-bottom beach break.
- Wave quality: It can produce fun, hollow peaks when conditions line up, especially after a decent swell.
- Best conditions: Generally works best with a clean east to southeast swell and light offshore winds.
- Wave size: Often small to medium, but it can pick up and become more powerful on a bigger groundswell.
- Crowds: Usually less crowded than more well-known NSW breaks, though conditions and access can affect that.
Environment and vibe
- Remote and low-key, with a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
- Surrounded by native bushland and farmland, making it feel more secluded than urban surf breaks.
- Often appreciated as much for its scenery and quiet beach feel as for the waves themselves.
Things to keep in mind
- Sandbanks can shift quickly, so the break quality changes with tides, swell, and storms.
- Beach breaks here can be rippy and powerful when surf is up.
- Access and safety can vary, so it’s worth checking local conditions before heading out.
