Koe Koe is a surf spot that offers an interesting challenge for those looking to catch some waves. It's positioned quite far out, so getting there can be a bit of a workout, but that might appeal to dedicated surfers. With a long right-hander, it serves both thrill and adventure, especially for those keen on testing their skills against some decent swells.

The waves at Koe Koe start to break around 6ft (2m) and can hold up to 20ft (6m), with a solid pointbreak at nearby Akahanga adding to the options. This spot mainly handles swells from the southwest, but it can pick up some action from the east as well. The wave breaks over an uneven reef, so be ready for some tricky sections. The best conditions usually happen on a low to mid tide, especially with a northwestern wind. Keep in mind that this spot is suited for expert surfers, so make sure you're comfortable with challenging waves before paddling out.

Since Koe Koe can get blown out often, don't expect a consistent line-up like at more popular surf spots. It's good to be aware that the wave quality might not always meet your expectations. Just be prepared for varying conditions and pack your patience along with your board.
