Peaks break both ways along the whole of Thirroul beach, and it is consistent from 0.3 to 2.4 m. NE swell suits it best, though it takes anything from NE to S, and a NW wind is offshore; any tide, rising is better, with a hollow shorebreak at high tide. Sandon Point's heavy right sits at the south end. Beginners should stay mid-beach near the lifeguards.
