Kirra

Kirra is a surf spot located in Queensland, Australia, renowned for its epic right-hand waves and sandy bottom with some rocky areas. This surf break is known for its fast and heavy barrels, making it a thrilling experience for intermediate and advanced surfers. Kirra features two main waves, with the first groyne being the primary attraction. The wave at Kirra dredges water and sand off the floor, creating a powerful and challenging ride. Surfers need to be quick and skilled to handle the speed and intensity of the wave, as being too slow can result in wipeouts. The wave length ranges from 150 to 300 meters, providing ample opportunity for long rides. Kirra requires a significant swell to work well, and when it does, it attracts a large crowd, so it’s important to be mindful of surf etiquette and respect the locals. The spot is not suitable for beginners due to its demanding nature. Surfers should check their skills before paddling out to ensure the conditions match their level. The surf forecast, report, and map are essential tools for planning a session at Kirra, and a webcam can provide real-time updates on the surf conditions. Remember to respect the locals and always check the surf etiquette when surfing crowded spots. Check your skills before paddling out to make sure the spot and conditions fit your surfing level.
