Weld Road surf guide

Weld Road is a surf spot located near Ahu Ahu and offers a chill vibe for surfers. This spot can be a good place for beginners and those looking for a relaxed day on the waves. The area has some nice scenery, with small tracks leading through farmlands down to the beach. Make sure to respect the local farms by asking for permission to cross any private property and closing any gates behind you.

The waves here work best with a south-west swell, which can handle sizes around 2 feet (about 0.6 meters). You’ll find both left and right-hand waves breaking over boulders and sand. This spot is best during mid to high tide, and it usually gets better as the tide rises. On those days when the south-east wind is blowing, you can enjoy some nice rolling peaks, which are perfect if you're on a longboard or just learning to surf. It's an ideal spot for a lazy day at the beach, as the vibe is pretty laid-back with easy waves.

Keep in mind that there are a lot of boulders around the rivermouth, which can make for a tricky paddle out at times. However, if you're looking for a spot that's beginner-friendly and low-key, Weld Road is worth checking out. Just remember to be mindful of the environment and the locals!
