The Swell & Overview

The most consistent time is from October to April. We get the same swell as Oahu's North Shore only smaller with an even longer period. The general rule is that if Sunset Beach is 8ft (16ft face), then we will get up to 4ft (8ft face) in two days time. Most of the waves fire upto a solid 6 ft (12 ft face), bigger than that then many of the set-ups close out. There are some set-ups which hold 7 ft plus, but our ideal size is in the 3 to 6 ft range. At this size most surfers will be spoilt for choice! And fortunately, this is our normal swell size.  Most of the reefs are made of broken coral rubble and so are not very sharp  (...famous last words!!!...). Christmas Island is blessed with offshore wind all day and every day.

 

The Crowds

We have no crowds here, that word again 'no crowds'!!
