St Clair, Dunedin

St Clair, Dunedin is an SSE-facing beach break in Saint Clair, Otago, New Zealand. It picks up swell from E to SW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 39% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNW: light winds or NNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSE onshores chop it up.
