Surf lyall bay middles

Lyall Bay Middles - Wellington, New Zealand Lyall Bay Middles features powerful sandbar waves that break both right and left, with depths ranging from 1 to 2 meters. This spot is best suited for elite bodyboarders, especially when a 2-foot plus groundswell is present. Expect fast and fun conditions, but be prepared for long hold-downs and solid duck-diving. Access is straightforward; park your van and walk across the beach in under five minutes. However, be cautious of aggressive local surfers and ferocious dogs on the beach. The wave works best at low and mid tides, particularly during falling tide with north to northwest winds and southwest to south swells. While the atmosphere can be intense due to localism, the thrill of barreling sections makes it a worthwhile challenge for experienced surfers.
