Surf Break: Talofofo/The Bay

Talofofo/The Bay in - is an exposed rivermouth break that does not work very often. Autumn and winter are the best times of year for waves. The best wind direction is from the west northwest. Windswells are much more typical than groudswells and the ideal wave direction is from the southeast.. Unlikely to be too crowded, even when the surf is up. Be wary of rips - they make surfing here dangerous.
