Sampled 4 km from the beach — the wave model runs on a coarse ocean grid, so these figures describe this stretch of coast rather than one end of the beach. Swell direction is where the waves are coming from.
WeatherNZ reports forecast and marine data. It does not report whether a beach is patrolled, whether the water is safe to swim in, or where the rips are, and nothing on this page should be read as saying so. Those change constantly and belong to the organisations that monitor them.

Next high tide at 10:48 pm, reaching 1.6 m.
Chart runs from six hours ago to eighteen hours ahead. Predictions are for Picton, the nearest tide station, 14 km away — tide times shift along a coast, so treat these as close rather than exact here. Heights are metres above chart datum.
