About This Break
Cactus is one of Australia's classic remote surf destinations, tucked against the desert landscape near Point Sinclair on the far western Eyre Peninsula. The namesake Cactus wave is a left-hand reef break; it's important not to confuse it with neighboring Castles, Caves, Witzig's and other Point Sinclair reefs. Surf Life Saving Australia confirms Cactus as the left off Cactus Beach.
