Werri Point

Werri Point is an exposed right-hand point break on the NSW South Coast (near Gerringong) known for quite consistent surf. The break requires a substantial south swell to wrap around the headland, and when it does, it can deliver powerful, relatively long rides over a rocky bottom before easing into the beach-break section. On the best days, rides are described as medium-long, with the option of runs up to around 150 meters. The point is also described as holding size well as swell increases, becoming more organized with larger surf. For conditions, wind direction matters: west and northwest winds are described as offshore, while southwest is also rideable, improving the odds of clean performance. Safety is a key consideration at this spot. Reported hazards include rocks and sharks, and the layout includes rock shelves and submerged boulders at the point. Currents can be strong and rips may form along the point, especially on bigger swells, and the walk out across the rocks can be slippery. Seasonally, February is highlighted as the best month, and winter/autumn is described as favoring consistent swells and offshore winds. Crowd pressure is described as unlikely to be too crowded even when conditions are good, though weekends during solid surf can bring more activity.
