Waitpinga is a beach for no-fooling, serious surfers, so if you can not stand the heat, get out of the kitchen! Huge swells roll in from the mighty Southern Ocean and channels of creamy surf rip into shifting sandbars. The ensuing break onto Waitpinga's steep, coarse-grained beach is ideal for tube riding-so friends should keep their camcorders rolling! They say you will always find a wave at Waitpinga, but if not, take heart from the wildlife instead. Schools of salmon, dolphins and migrating southern right whales are common in winter, and you may see an albatross after storms at sea.
