Happy Jacks Surf Guide

Happy Jacks in Gisborne and Mahia is an exposed reef and point break that has quite reliable surf and can work at any time of the year. Works best in offshore winds from the west and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Still reasonable in light onshore winds Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the best swell direction is from the northeast. There is no beach break as well as left and right hand reef breaks. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. Even when the surf is up, crowds are unknown. Watch out for rocks.
