Houghton Bay Surf Guide

Houghton Bay in Wellington is an exposed beach and reef break that has inconsistent surf. Summer in particular tends to be flat. Works best in offshore winds from the north with some shelter here from north winds. Able to handle light onshore wind Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the south. Waves at the beach break both left and right and there is a right hand reef break as well.. When it's working here, it can get crowded. Take care of rocks and pollution.
