Ocean Beach is a surf spot located in South West Australia, Australia. This spot is known for providing both left and right waves, making it a versatile location for surfers of all skill levels. The waves break over a sandy bottom, and the spot works well at all tides. Ocean Beach is considered a regional classic, with wave lengths ranging from 50 to 150 meters. The spot is generally uncrowded, but it can get busier when conditions are optimal. Surfers can enjoy fun waves that are suitable for learning, while also challenging enough for experienced surfers.

It’s important to wait until the council opens up the inlet with front-end loaders around July-August to watch the waves peel down a perfect bank. Ocean Beach has even been featured in the original ‘Endless Summer’ film. Nearby surf spots include Lowlands Beach, The Right, Muttonbird Island, Twisties, and Conspicuous Beach.
