Tips from the community

This lesser-known spot on the south island of New Zealand is where a lot of fruit is grown. I lived and worked here for a month on an avocado farm a.k.a. heaven. What's better than an unlimited supply of avocados? Surfing un-crowded waves, that's what. You'll find them at Waihi beach and various other points in the Bay of Plenty. I found the early morning surf was the best to learn on and then spend the rest of your day feeling amazing.
