Vunaniu surf guide

Vunaniu is a surf spot located in a beautiful area that offers two main breaks, giving surfers some variety in their options. The vibe is casual, and the setting features stunning reefs and live coral underneath. It's a good spot to catch some decent waves if you're in the area.

The Vunaniu Pass has two rights, with Shifties being the outer peak. This spot can pick up swells from the SouthEast and SouthWest, handling sizes from 2ft (around 0.6 meters) and up. Shifties is known for being powerful and can get real large, especially at the initial peak. It wraps well, allowing for some nice cutbacks. On the inside, there's Jays, which is consistently smaller but offers some fun barrels on days with more west in the swell and wind. Positioning is key here, and it works best at low, mid, and high tides. Expect the best conditions with a north wind.

Intermediates can enjoy the smaller days at Shifties, while experts will want to take on the fast barrels at Jays. Both breaks offer something unique, and if you're looking for more action, Black Rock is just across the channel and provides ledgy rights for those seeking a little more excitement.
