Victoria
Gunnamatta is one of Victoria's most powerful and unpredictable beach breaks, sitting on the exposed ocean side of the Mornington Peninsula. It receives raw Southern Ocean swell virtually unfiltered, producing heavy, fast-breaking waves that can rival anything on the Surf Coast. Not a beginner beach — rips are strong and the shore dump can be severe.
