Tenneti Park is a surf spot that often flies under the radar but offers some decent waves for those in the know. It features a peaceful communal area where people often meditate and stretch in the early mornings. The spot is marked by a low submerged reef with several rocks, most of which stay clear of the rideable zones. If the conditions are right, it can serve up some pretty fun swells.

When it comes to catching waves here, the optimal swell direction is Southeast, but it can handle swells from Northeast and Southwest as well. You can expect waves that are best for intermediate surfers, especially due to the rocks and the sucky take-off that can catch you off guard. The waves break over the rock ledge and usually roll in with right-handers. For those looking to paddle out, the swell sizes can be as small as 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) and can provide one or two hollow waves per set that lead into longer cutback shoulders. The best conditions come with West winds and any tide height—low, mid, or high—will generally work here.

Overall, Tenneti Park can be fun for those skilled enough to navigate the rocks and the lineup. The consistency is decent, sitting around 6 out of 10, but like anywhere, it can be hit or miss depending on the swell and wind. Just be prepared for some variability.
