Fair conditions - still worth a paddle. Solid 5.3ft swell with long-period 14s ground swell but pretty windy at 13kt Note: winds from N would be better.

Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Allans Beach on the Otago Peninsula is an exposed beach break with reasonably consistent surf that can be surfed year-round. The best surf occurs with a south swell and offshore winds from the north, typically during autumn—most often in March—when clean, rideable waves are most common. The break receives a mix of groundswells and windswells, produces both left and right-handers, and is surfable across all stages of the tide. The area is very rarely crowded, but surfers should beware of strong rips and the potential presence of sharks.
