Queensland
Queensland is an Australian state in the northeast of the country with a coastline of almost 7,000 km and famous for its surf spots. In the sea off the coast is located the Great Barrier Reef. The worlds biggest 2,300 km long ecosystem includes thousands of reefs and hundreds of islands.
Point Break
At a point break, the shoreline juts out into the water to form a headland. A wave that is lengthy, well-formed, and unlikely to close out or break in front of itself is created when a wave strikes a headland or pier and starts to peel down the extended shoreline. Point breaks typically only have one takeoff point and only travel in one direction, so you might have to wait in line to catch a wave. At these specific surf spots, quality prevails over quantity.
