A Surfers' Haven

`Otuhaka is only a one minute walk to the most consistent wave on the island, “The Pass.” Other offshore breaks are within walking distance and only minutes away. Come and enjoy good waves all year round. April through October is the winter south swell season, while November through May is the summer swell season. We also arrange boat trips for those who want to surf the outer reefs.

Other surf breaks:

  • Motels: hollow lefts with fast walls on any size swells
  • The Peak: a small right, look out when it is over 1 meter.
  • Corners: a deeper left that has very workable walls, one of the safer spots in Tonga
  • The Bowl: if you thought that Ala Moana Bowl had a bend in it, look again. Insane left barrel. A bottom reef that eats fins and skin.
  • Fishtraps: a fast left that gets longer and better with larger swells
  • Lighthouse: not for the lighthearted, a dangerous barrelling right-hander.
  • `Atata reefs: (only by boat) two or three breaks, depending on the swell direction, This is where you want to be when everywhere else closes out on a big south or big northwester. All the privacy you want, because you create your own crowd.
