general information

The rocky out crop at the southern end of Dee Why Beach is Dee Why Point. Paddle out is either a well timed jump off the rocks or from the beach.

The wave it self deserves respect, as do the locals. The wave stands up on a rock ledge, throws over into a solid barrel and sections off down the line for up to 100m. It all happens very fast. Add 30 to 50 surfers in the water and it is intense. A great challenge for good surfers and no place for a beginner.

Dee Why Point holds swell up to 10ft but is best at 6ft with a light S to West wind. If you are up for it, go and get out there, just take care and be nice!
