The Wild coast is definately an area to visit if you enjoy adventure surfing. The whole coast is very rural and expect almost every spot to be empty. Many epic waves along this coast that are hidden away in some bay ready for you to surf. You need patience and true stoke to venture across this coast and the experience will enevitably be WILD. Coffee Bay is probabaly the most "developed" areas for surfing as there is a surf shop and board rental area.
Seasonal swell & wind variations:
Light westerly offshore winds are the best.
Morning surf or late afternoon is always good as the wind is usaully non-existent.
