Before you swim
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.
- Surf Life Saving New Zealand — patrolled beaches and patrol hours.
- Safeswim — water quality and current swimming conditions.
- MetService warnings — official marine and coastal warnings.
For the wider area, see the Fitzroy forecast.
