25 minutes drive north of Wanganui. Open camping. Launch and sail out through channel markers. No good at low tide. Suits: Wavesailing. Suitable for Beginners.
Good long peeling right-handers.
In Detail: In a westerly, this is the place to be, right-hand point/reef break. About half the swell of Kina Road it still manages mast high on occasions. The beach offers a milder version of the point for the conservative.
