Bulli surf FAQ

Is Bulli good for beginners?+

Bulli is a beach break over sand, usually breaking in the 1.5–4.5m range, and how suitable it is for beginners really depends on the size and power on the day — not a fixed label. Set the level to Beginner above and WaveCheck flags the smaller, cleaner hours worth paddling out for.

What's the best board for Bulli?+

Different days call for different boards. Bulli can get sizeable, so a shortboard comes into its own on bigger days, while a longboard still works when it drops small. Tap through the boards above to see the live score for whatever you'll be riding.

What are the best conditions for Bulli?+

Look for 1.5–4.5m of swell from the NE / E / SE with light offshore winds from the SW / W / NW. The 5-day forecast above scores every hour, so you can spot the window at a glance.
