Cox Bay Beach

Cox Bay Beach is just south of Chesterman (with Rosie Bay in-between) and is a great beach for surf, although it can be a bit tough getting out to the green at times for beginners. Fun beach to walk end to end with tide pools at south end and Sunset Point Walk at the north. The waves at Cox Bay Beach can be very sweet. They can also bowl a beginner over with those long boards. Sometimes they seem relentless when you’re trying to get out with a fun or long board. We find that looking at each other and laughing our heads off helps cope with the constant blasts. And then you get a break and get out and it’s all worth it for the rides at Cox. There are rips that can pull right and left so take your bearings when you get in. But they don’t seem to pull out so relax and remember how great paddling is for your arms when you have to keep moving over.
