Woodpecker Bay Surf Guide
Woodpecker Bay in West Coast South Island is a sheltered beach break that has fairly consistent surf and can work at any time of the year. Works best in offshore winds from the south southeast with some shelter here from south southwest winds. Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the ideal swell direction is from the southwest. No beach break here and there are also left and right reef breaks (left is best). An uncrowded break, even when it is working. Watch out for rocks.
