Description

Maraa - Tahiti Maraa is a powerful left-breaking reef wave that rolls over sharp coral. This spot features hollow, fast, and powerful waves, making it suitable for experienced surfers only. Access is straightforward, with instant access from a dirt lot near the highway, but be prepared for a long paddle at high tide. Known for its uncrowded conditions, Maraa offers a unique surfing experience for those willing to navigate its challenges. The wave can be deceivingly makeable, rewarding deeper take-offs with speed through the fast inside bowl. However, caution is advised due to the presence of urchins, rips, and sharks. the best swell comes from the west and southwest. While the atmosphere is tranquil, the reef demands respect and awareness, making it essential to be prepared for the unpredictable nature of the waves.
