Moore Park Beach

Moore Park Beach, QLD (North West / Bundaberg region) is a long, open stretch of beach surf known more for its relaxed, uncrowded feel than for heavy surf. It’s a high-tide sandbar beachbreak with waves that can be fun and peaky when conditions line up, especially with a solid swell and favorable winds.

Surf character

• Wave type: Beachbreak
• Best on: High tide over sandbars
• Style: Usually small to medium, with occasional bigger days when swell pushes in
• Crowds: Typically light, thanks to its regional location
• Vibe: Quiet, laid-back, and scenic

What to expect

• Conditions can be variable, with sandbanks shifting and changing the way waves break.
• It often works best with clean winds and a consistent swell from the north-east or east.
• Because it’s an open beach, it can get windy or rippy at times, and some sections may be more suitable for experienced surfers depending on the day.

Good for

• Intermediate surfers looking for a less crowded session
• Beginners on smaller, cleaner days
• Surfers chasing a mellow beachbreak rather than a point or reef setup

Things to keep in mind

• Check for currents and rips
• Best surfing is often tide-dependent
• Sandbanks can change after storms, so local knowledge helps a lot
