Kaikōura & Marlborough
South Island12+ surf breaks
Mangamaunu right-hand point, world-class waves, wildlife
Mangamaunu is arguably New Zealand's best right-hand point break — a long, peeling wave that runs parallel to the main highway with the Seaward Kaikōura Range as a backdrop. The region's mix of points, reefs, and beach breaks makes it well worth a stop on any South Island surf trip.
