Para Para Rivermouth Surf Photo: 'Surf, in Golden Bay?!' by Rob Davies
Waves had reached about 3.5m on the Golden Bay Wavebuoy the night before and was 2.5m the time of this photo. The wind had been more SE than E and only about 50Kph, so in theory it can be better than this as there is a reasonable fetch to the east. Soft, but surfable and breaking about 300m out.
