I thought I could at least offer a comment on my local area, and hope it may help others checking a mission.

In short, this is one of the most isolated areas in NZ, and like most of NZ its chilled (w
ater and people!). You've seen the map but it doesnt show the mountain ranges.
Be prepared for long winding mountain roads.(its 3-4 hours drive from Gis to next city in
any direction!). Youll need a car and camping gear for the best of it.

On the world scale the waves are average. Average surf is 2-5ft Winter (bring 4-5mm steamer); 0-3ft Summer (bring a springie). Few spots handle 6ft+, few spots are world class.
Like anywhere, better known spots get crowded. The standard of surfing is the best in NZ but locals are generally cool.

Like everywhere be chilled, smile and enjoy.
