Port Douglas

Port Douglas is a surf spot located in Queensland, Australia. This surf spot is known for its right-hand waves that break over a coral reef, providing a regional classic surfing experience. The waves at Port Douglas sometimes break and are less than 50 meters in length, making it suitable for surfers of all levels. The spot is generally empty, so you can enjoy the waves without much crowd. However, it’s important to be cautious of the local wildlife, including crocodiles, box jellyfish, and sharks. The surf spot is located at the end of the main street of town, near the river mouth to the harbor, where you can enter the water next to the boathouse. The waves here can be influenced by moderate to strong south-easterly winds, and during a cyclone, you might find some fun waves to ride. It’s advisable to check the surf forecast and report before heading out, and a map or webcam can help you get a better idea of the current conditions.
