Supertubes, Surf spot in Smiths Beach, Western Australia.
Supertubes is a surf spot at Smiths Beach featuring two distinct waves breaking on a shallow reef. The left-hander offers steep barrels while the right-hander provides longer rides across the water.
The spot developed through its natural reef formation and gradually attracted professional surfers. Today it is regularly used for competitions.
Local surfing traditions at Supertubes emphasize wave selection and timing, with experienced surfers mentoring newcomers about proper entry points and safety protocols.
Access is through Lizard Head Car Park at lookout number 16, with a path running along the rocks beneath the cliffs. The route is rocky and requires careful steps, especially when wet.
The waves can produce very long rides under certain conditions, which fascinates many surfers. These extended runs occur especially with west and southwest swells.
