 Caractéristiques du spot de surf

 Informations supplémentaires

Cray Bay has two excellent left handers (plus two good right handers and a beach break). Its a pain to get there but its worth it. Very consistence because its facing South and catches the big southerly swells (+ the easterly swells). About the only spot around Napier that is offshore on a northerly wind. Park on the southern end of the Beach in Waimarama. There are two ways: 1. 2 h before low tide: Walk along the beach south (gets rocky and a pain to walk ). After app. 30 min you see the 1st right. 10 min further the 1st left. 10 min further you hit the beach. Another 10 min along the beach to the southern end: 2nd right. And around the point from there (or over the hill) the 2nd left which is the best wave of all. 2. The faster way (or at high tide) to the 2nd left (app. 45 min walk) is not along the beach but over the hill around the pine forest. Hard to desribe here - its easy to get lost in the pine forest. The best is you walk around the pine forest up to the top of the hill. From there cross a paddock down the hill where you see a gravel road in the valley. This is private farmland - show respect please. Follow the gravel road along a lake and app. 10 min after the lake you are on the cliff at the southern end of Cray Bay. On the southern side of the cliff you look down to the 2nd left. Take a friend - I surf this spot app. 20 times per year and never ever met another surfer there. Can hold a big swell. Its fast, hollow and rocky - not for the faint hearted - but I think its one of the best lefthanders on the East Coast of the North Island. The 1st left is a bit tamer but also very good - nice long workable wall. Its very beautiful there - New Zealand surfing at its best. Go early and stay the day. Take food and water.
