Hey im from glenbeigh. surf any bigger than 3-4 foot generally just closes out.surf there christmas day the last 2 years,was about 3 foot and peeling nicely,no wind. better suited for a longer board but shortboard can be fun as well



place gets a bit over run around new years when all the kayakers are around

FYI when a surfer says 3 - 4 ft they usually mean head-high to about 2 ft overhead. Don't ask me to explain it, it just is.
