The Glen Surf Guide
The Glen in Nelson - Tasman Bay is an exposed beach break that only works when conditions are just right with no particular seasonal pattern. Offshore winds blow from the southeast and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the ideal swell angle is from the northwest. The beach break offers mainly right hand waves. Best around mid tide. The location means that it never gets crowded. Take care of - Urchins - Rocks.
