Big, broad, open lineup facing slightly east of south into Bass Strait, but open to the SW, Bells is a short coarse-grained sand beach flanked by old sedimentary rock headlands sloping away to the west and east. There’s several distinct breaks here: Centreside, well up the reef to the west; Rincon or Little Rincon, the tip of the Bells point itself; the Bells Bowl, pretty much the spot’s main break; and Winkipop, Bells’s cousin, just around a short headland to the east. In small swells these spots are all held well apart from each other, but in a big winter-style SW groundswell they feel a lot more connected. Generally best in a SSW swell head-high to triple overhead or bigger, with winds from the NW.
