Gnaraloo

Gnaraloo is a surfing spot on the coast of Western Australia, situated 160 kilometres north of Carnarvon. It is well known as a windsurfing location.

The mains wave in the area is called "Tombstones", which is a heavy barrelling left-hander.

The best time of year is from August thru to February

There is also "Centres" which is another left just south of Tombstones and a variety of lesser known and "secret spots". Gnaraloo is only for experienced surfers due to its size, power and isolation from medical facilities. The area is also known for its fishing, as Gnaraloo is situated on the southern tip of Ningaloo Reef.
