Built for progression
Coached, filmed and pushed further
You should be comfortable in the ocean and able to paddle and catch your own waves. From there it's about surfing them better: an assessment on day one, coaching in the water, and video so you can see exactly what to change.

Left and right reef break
Margaret River Main Break ‘Margies’
Surfers Point · Prevelly
Alive and always shifting, with bumps, steps and changing sections that make you adapt at speed. On a big swell, one of Australia's premier big-wave arenas.
AdvancedRight point break
North Point
Gracetown · Cowaramup Bay
One of WA's heaviest, most respected reefs. Long, carvable walls on smaller days, and steep drops and barrels when the swell builds.
Left point break
South Point
Gracetown · Cowaramup Bay
A long, flowing left with drawn-out walls. Room to link turns and find your rhythm down the line.
Left-hand reef break
Three Bears ‘Baby, Mama & Papa’
Cape Naturaliste · Dunsborough
A run of reef peaks with clean, high-quality walls and several workable sections. It rewards creative surfing, not survival surfing.
Right-hand reef break
Yallingup Main Break ‘Yalls’
Yallingup
A standout of the region. It peels down the reef with real power and shape, holds size and rewards good positioning.
Reef break
Supertubes
Smiths Beach · Yallingup
The hollow end of Smiths Beach. It rewards positioning and timing, and delivers real barrel sections when it lines up.
Reef break
Injidup Point ‘The Point’
Injidup · Yallingup
The standout of the Injidup stretch, known for clean lines and reliable shape when the swell direction is right.
AdvancedReef break
Lefthanders ‘Lefties’
South of Gracetown
A quality, more serious wave that draws a committed crowd when it lines up. Locals rate it among the most demanding on this stretch.
AdvancedReef break
The Box
Prevelly · Margaret River
One of the heavier, more technical waves in the area. A spot that demands respect.

You should be comfortable in the ocean and able to paddle and catch your own waves. The trip is for intermediate and advanced surfers, and your guide matches the breaks to the group and the forecast. If you're unsure, tell us about your surfing and we'll give you an honest assessment.
What boards should I bring?
Two if you can: your everyday board plus one for smaller or bigger days than usual. Quality hire boards are available if you'd rather travel light, and we'll send an equipment guide once you've booked.
Can I come on my own?
Definitely. Plenty of guests travel solo. With a group of up to 10 sharing sessions, meals and film nights, you won't be on your own for long.
How do I get there?
Fly into Perth. Transfers from Perth Airport to the house are included within the set arrival and departure windows. Flights aren't included, but Salt Atlas can help you book through ATOL-protected partners.
Which month should I pick?
Autumn (March to May) is the premier season, with offshore easterlies and consistent swell. Winter brings the biggest, most powerful surf, spring has clean, moderate waves, and summer is smaller but still has plenty of swell magnets. This year's confirmed trips leave on 20 October, 19 November and 13 December. For 2027, tell us the month you'd like.
