Description

Makarori Point - Makarori, New Zealand Makarori Point features a right-hand point break with a sandy bottom interspersed with rock, providing hollow, fast, and fun waves. This technical wave holds good size swells and is best surfed at mid to high tide during rising tide conditions. Access is easy, located just eight kilometers north of Gisborne, with instant access available within five minutes. The spot is suitable for surfers of all skill levels, making it a popular choice, especially for beginners. The beach has a relaxed vibe, with ample parking options. However, it can become crowded, particularly on weekends, with longboarders often dropping in. Surfers should be cautious of rocky patches at low tide.
