Not all beaches are created equal — and conditions change by the minute. Beaches of Australia uses real-time wind speed, wind direction, and each beach's unique geography to calculate a live shelter rating out of 10, updated every 15 minutes. Whether you want a sheltered cove for a family swim or the cleanest swell for a surf, find the best beach near you right now — not from yesterday's guide, but from conditions on the ground, today.
