Eyeball surf reportRecent Eyeball Surf Reports for Nelson - Tasman Bay

  1. Excellent conditions on Friday am with about 15 surfers at the point. Light offshore with shoulder to head-high waves. It got hollow on the gravel bar. Mellower very long lefts on the inside bar as the tide came in. Cloud and rain slowly clearing.

    2 hours 16 minutes ago Delaware Bay Point, 10 km away

  2. Overhead clean set waves with light wnds sounds ideal but there was a very strong sidehore current and a lot of the surf was dumpy. Just a handful of surfers out and having short sessions. Ruby Bay was better shape and smaller but the road was closed a long way short of the campground so nobody was surfing the point.

    22 hours 57 minutes ago Rabbit Island, 17 km away
