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. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the best swell direction is from the northwest. The beach breaks favour rights. Best around mid tide. Crowds are never a problem here. Beware of - Urchins - Rocks.
