Mera surf FAQ

Is Mera good for beginners?+

Mera is a reef break over rock, and how suitable it is for beginners really depends on the size and power on the day — not a fixed label. The rock bottom rewards some confidence in the water and awareness of what's beneath you, especially as the size picks up. Set the level to Beginner above and WaveCheck flags the smaller, cleaner hours worth paddling out for.

What's the best board for Mera?+

Different days call for different boards. Mera handles a range of boards — a longboard or fish when it's small, a shortboard when there's more push. Tap through the boards above to see the live score for whatever you'll be riding.

What are the best conditions for Mera?+

Look for from the SE / SSE / S with light offshore winds from the NNE / NE / ENE. The 5-day forecast above scores every hour, so you can spot the window at a glance.
