Tauranga Bay Surf Guide
Tauranga Bay in West Coast South Island is an exposed beach and point break that has reasonably consistent surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds blow from the east southeast with some shelter here from south winds. Still reasonable in light onshore winds Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the best swell direction is from the west southwest. The beach breaks peel to the left and there is a left hand point break as well. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. When it's working here, it can get crowded. Rocks are a hazard.
