Today's Surf Conditions at Raglan
Best Surf Season & Climatology
Best Surf Season (February - April)
Raglan's golden window arrives as summer's heat fades and the Tasman Sea begins to churn. February through April sees the strongest blend of warm air, long-period SW/WSW groundswell and the highest rates of offshore SSW/SW/WSW wind for the year. Average swells run 1.6-1.9m (5-6ft) with periods clicking into the 12-12.6s range, which means the famous left point gets both push and shape. Add water temps around 18.9-20.9°C and it's no surprise this is the season to score.
