The main beach at Agnes Water, often called the most northerly surf beach on Queensland's east coast, because north of here the Great Barrier Reef blocks the swell. It faces north-east and picks up south-east to east swell, usually small, with south-westerly winds offshore. A gentle beach break that suits learners and longboarders, with surf schools and a patrolled section in the warmer months.
