Golden Bay surf guide

Golden Bay is a surf spot located in a scenic area that's worth checking out when you’re looking for some waves. The beach features a sandy bottom and is known to pick up swells well, especially from the NorthWest and SouthWest. Parking is available, but you’ll need to pay for it.

For surfing, this spot is pretty beginner-friendly, handling swell sizes down to 2ft (about 0.6 meters) and producing average left and right waves. It works best with swells coming from the NorthWest and SouthWest. You'll find that it can handle a range of tide heights, from low to high, which gives you some flexibility in planning your session. East winds tend to be the most favorable here, but keep an eye on the conditions to maximize your fun!

Be aware that the currents can be strong at times, so it's important to stay alert. Overall, if the conditions line up, you might find some decent waves waiting for you at Golden Bay.

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
    • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
