Surf Breaker Bay

Breaker Bay - Wellington, New Zealand Breaker Bay features powerful, hollow right-hand reef waves breaking over sharp coral and rocky bottoms. The wave length is approximately 30 meters, with optimal conditions occurring at mid to high tide during rising and falling tides. Access is straightforward, with a carpark located directly above the reef, just a short walk away. This surf spot is known for its heavy waves, particularly when the swell is up, creating short but intense tubes. Located on the easternmost beach of Wellington's south coast, it is about a 15-minute drive from the city. While the wave can be intimidating, it is said that larger swells can offer a safer experience. The area typically sees few surfers on weekends and is often empty during the week, making it an appealing choice for those seeking solitude. However, caution is advised due to the presence of sharp rocks.
