A touch too big

New Zealand | Horseshoe Bay

Average rating: 3.3

Despite a slight onshore breeze, some very nice fast peeling waves but occasional well overhead sets would close out right across the Bay. Other nearby breaks are better than Horseshoe Bay when the swell is large and this 2m NE swell was about on the limit for this stunning spot.
