Vizag East Point

Vizag East Point is an exposed point break near Visakhapatnam that tends to work most in summer, with the best month reported as July. It’s described as an occasional spot: it only reliably produces rideable, clean waves when the right combination of south swells and offshore west-northwest winds comes together. When conditions align, the break offers peeling, right-hand point waves with a moderate wave feel and generally good wave quality. The ride is often longer than typical for smaller point breaks—good swells can produce rides up to around 150 meters, with typical rides reported around 100 meters. Wind-wise, west to southwest winds are associated with the best wave grooming, with west winds described as offshore. Typical reported wind strengths for the spot are around 10–20 knots, with moderate gustiness and an overall moderate-to-clean profile when it’s on (reported clean/wind split includes 61% clean and 39% blown). The spot’s wind reliability is therefore best considered seasonal and forecast-dependent rather than dependable day-to-day. For safety, take the rocky shoreline seriously. Hazards include rocks along the point, submerged boulders, varying sandbanks, and strong currents typical of point breaks. It’s also recommended to surf early (before sea-breeze strengthening) and to watch carefully for submerged rocks at low tide. Lifeguards are not reported, and regional rescue availability is described as limited—so plan accordingly.
