Essentially, this is a left-hander breaking of the north end of Bath Rocks. Although waves more akin to a beach break can be surfed in the little embayment between Bath Rocks and the North end of Town Beach. The Wall For an exciting, fast but short wave with a mad take off, try 'The Wall'. Situated alongside the sea wall just below the Castle and in front of the Old College, this wave is only surfable at high tide. Waves roll along the wall and break in very shallow water.
Entry is gained by descending the spiral steps around a buttress of the sea wall.
Again, not a wave for beginners or the faint-hearted. The rocks at the north end of South beach just below the Castle sometimes produce surfable right-hand waves. Entry is gained by negotiating the often fierce shore-break on the beach. The rocks seaward of the pier also produce some waves that on occasion look surfable. I however, have never surfed them, nor seen anyone surf them.
