Wavetraps Surf Guide
Wavetraps in West Coast South Island is a fairly exposed sandbar break that has pretty consitent surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds are from the southeast with some shelter here from north winds. Still reasonable in light onshore winds Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the ideal swell direction is from the west southwest. The sandbar break favours left handers. Sometimes crowded. Water quality is rather poor here.
