Description

Lake Ferry - New Zealand Lake Ferry features a sandbar wave that breaks both right and left over a sandy bottom. Known for its hollow, fast, and powerful characteristics, this spot is best surfed at mid to high tide during a rising tide with a strong southerly swell. Accessed via a short walk from Martinborough, Lake Ferry offers an exhilarating surf experience, but caution is advised due to its changeable conditions and potential dangers, including rips and sharks. The atmosphere is electric, with the possibility of catching great barrels and bowls when the swell aligns. However, the unpredictable nature of the water and wind can pose risks, making it essential for surfers to be experienced. With few surfers on weekdays, it provides a more secluded session, but be prepared for the challenges that come with this thrilling surf spot.
