Nearby Waves to Explore
Your surf adventure doesn’t end at Kandooma Right. Just a short boat ride away, you’ll find an exciting selection of reef breaks suited to various skill levels:
- Tucky Joes / Boatyards - A fickle but legendary left-hander, known for its long, perfect, and intense ride. When it’s firing, this wave is a high-speed dream for experienced surfers.
- Riptides - A right-hand reef break running for up to 150 metres in the middle of a channel. While strong currents can be present (as the name suggests), it’s a fantastic wave for longboarders, shortboarders, and confident low-intermediate surfers.
- Quarters - This versatile wave offers something for everyone. The outside section is mellow and ideal for beginners or longboarders, while the inside section delivers a fast, fun right-hander, and on a good day, perfect little barrels.

All surf experiences must be booked as part of a surfing holiday package via Perfect Travel Group. This ensures a crowd-free, sustainable, and high-quality surf environment that protects both the waves and the reef ecosystem.
