Fletchers Beach Surf Guide

Fletchers Beach in Nelson - West Coast is a fairly exposed beach break that has pretty consitent surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds are from the south southwest with some shelter here from south winds. Does not handle onshore winds very well Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the ideal swell angle is from the west northwest. The beach breaks are all lefts and in addition, there is also a left hand point break. Best around mid tide when the tide is falling. Unlikely to be too crowded, even when the surf is up. Take care of rips and rocks.
