Notes Regarding Wavehunters Rating System

We have also factored surface conditions and winds into our rating system. For example if an area has unstable weather or onshore winds during certain months it may reduce its rating. Size of the surf is not the only factor for determining the overall quality of the surf. Some areas may enjoy their cleanest and hence best conditions in a month that does not necessarily have the biggest swells.

For less experienced surfers such as beginners or intermediates a B or C rating may be ideal. Please inquire for more info.

No Ratings system is perfect. Big swells may sometimes occur out of season. This is just a general guideline of what NORMALLY occurs at a given location.
