Gerroa..???

But seriously, often you'll find that anything around SW to W can be quite good on the North end of Gerroa. Especially if the second bomby is breaking you should get a wave on the beach as well.

Just be prepared to sail alone. When I used to live there I always had the entire beach to myself in a Westerly.

EDIT: Buhaha... just realised you are talking about a spot some 3500km away.

Just curious, were you planning doing a day day trip from Perth or a weekend trip. Does the wind kind of never stop up there or is it a case of timing the fronts in winter?
