  There are a few good surf spots in Devonport, unfortunately they aren't pumping all that often. Try the river mouth, on the east or west side depending on the swell, or Coles beach.
  
  Winter is definately the time of year when the surf is best and a wetsuit is probably a good idea although the water is generally a bit warmer than on the West or South coast of Tasmania. over 9 years ago

  Yeah like Leigh says, the Mersey River mouth has good wave, but you need an easterly breeze for it to be working - doesn't happen all that often. over 9 years ago
