The road is fully sealed but is quite windy and narrow in places. Below the parking area is where most of the surfing takes place and toilets facilities have recently been installed.
Please note, this beach is not safe for swimming.
FISHING
This is a great spot for fishing at sunset - snapper, kahawai, dogfish, trevally, cod, gurnard and the occasional moki are taken here.
SURFING
Great for experienced surfers only
Very consistent right-hand reef break onto a black sand beach. SW to E swells with N-NE offshores. 0.6m to 2.4m. Black's has the consistent left and right-hand reef breaks, which are best at low tide in a moderate southerly swell, but watch out for the shallow reefs.
Black’s is one of the most consistent surf breaks in New Zealand and you are almost guaranteed of finding waves of reasonable quality at least once or twice a week.
