NSW Ocean Wave Data Collection Program

Department of Customer Service

Manly Hydraulics Laboratory (MHL) collects offshore wave data at seven continuously recording sites off the NSW coast. Waverider buoys are located off Byron Bay, Coffs Harbour, Crowdy Head, Sydney, Port Kembla, Batemans Bay and Eden.

To provide deepwater wave data, the buoys are typically moored in water depths between 70 and 100 metres, between 6 and 12 kilometres from the shoreline.
