Oreti Beach

Oreti Beach is one of Invercargill's local beaches, which features a beach break on a sandy beach. There are several peaks to choose from down the beach, with both right and left handers. The wave can be fat and soft. Good for all levels of surfer. It gets colder down this area, so wear plenty of rubber. There is a surf club at Oreti Beach.
