The northern beaches, the banks
Sydney's famous beach peak, not a secret sandbar. North Narrabeen is banks that move, a car park that fills, a training ground a lot of Australian surfers still name. The lagoon sits behind. The ocean is the other side of the road.
When.
March to September
South and east swell. The banks move. A clean morning is the bet.
Worth knowing.
- 1. Walk. The peak in front of the lot is not always the one.
- 2. Dawn is the quieter hour. Mid-morning on a weekend is Sydney.
- 3. The lagoon is behind you. This page is the ocean beach, not the lake.
- 4. Autumn and winter organise the banks. Summer can still have a morning.
Go.
Before you paddle.
- 1. Check local conditions before entering
- 2. Always surf with a buddy
- 3. Know your limits and skill level
- 4. Watch for rip currents
- 5. Respect local surfers and rules
