Next to Bells
The right next to Bells Beach, not the contest heat. Winki Pop is a longer wall down the same Victorian reef, same cold water, a different takeoff. The Rip Curl Pro is next door. This page is the other peak.
When.
April to September
Southwest swell in winter. The same pulse that lights Bells.
Worth knowing.
- 1. This is not Bells. Same car park energy, a different takeoff.
- 2. Winter is the window. Summer is smaller, still a look, not why the name exists.
- 3. The stairs and the cliff path are the look. Watch a set before you commit.
- 4. A spring suit from Queensland is not a Torquay spring suit.
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
