Bells Beach, Victoria, Australia

Bells Beach is home to the Rip Curl Pro, the longest-running surf competition globally, dating back to 1962 — 30 years older than #8 Hossegor's contest. This powerful right-hand point break produces solid 6-to-12-foot swells that barrel along the sandstone cliff-lined coast during Australian autumn and winter. Its iconic status was cemented in the 1991 film Point Break, and it consistently delivers waves that are faster than the average point break due to its unique bathymetry.
