Be the first to review Little Wanganui! Login to leave a review.

Located on the rugged West Coast of New Zealand's South Island, Little Wanganui is a secluded beach/river bar break that rewards expert surfers with powerful waves. The spot thrives on west-northwest groundswells and works best with offshore east winds. Tides don’t affect wave quality, but strong rips make surfing here dangerous. When conditions align, it delivers long left and right-hand rides, though crowds are rare.
