Going west out from Warrnambool very approx 10kms from start of 100kms. After you go past the volcano (Tower hill) you'll see one No-thru-road (Andersons Rd), go South down the next road "Gormans Rd". There's a few carpark areas which all have beach access. The park next to the old river mouth is good. DistanceTake a car WalkInstant access (< 5min) Easy to find?OK Public access?Public access Special accessDon't know |

Additional Information
Atmosphere
Really clear, clean water. When waves aren't breaking on Warrnambool and Port Fairy beaches it still is at The Cutting. Today for instance Logan's had 40cm waves while there was the odd head-height wave at The Cutting
General
I don't come here much although it is a great place to surf. If you know more about this place please add/change bits on this page.

Fickle but Smokin! - Have to agree that this is a fickle wave (it's a Beachy what do you expect), but when the sand is movin around and there is decent swell this joint is effen smokin... almost straight offshore is essential, cross shore fucks it out. The reef out the back can fire like a mother fucker! This place can get big, heavier than your mum and will pit, good place to snap a board if you get it wrong. If you haven't surfed here on a good day, ha ha suck shit! Yiew!
