Surf Mukerau Beach

Mukerau Beach (Mukies 2) - New Zealand Mukerau Beach features a left-breaking beach break with a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The waves are known for being fast and fun, but the spot is best surfed at low tide during falling tide conditions. It holds more swell than the more accessible Wreck Bay, but caution is advised when the swell exceeds 2 meters, as it can lead to close-outs. Located 2 kilometers west of Wreck Bay, access requires a long walk over sand and rocks or a 4WD vehicle at lower tides. The atmosphere is peaceful, with few surfers on weekdays and only a handful on weekends. This spot is ideal for intermediates seeking a manageable paddle out and a variety of wave conditions. However, surfers should be aware that the sandy bottom can lead to variable wave quality, so checking conditions beforehand is recommended.
