Take off deep, peaky take off which can be backdoored, and just dont get caught inside or hit the reef cause u will know about it! Its VERY shallow....
Info from surfingtonga.comThe Peak is a summertime north swell righthander that breaks off the same peak as Kamikazes (winter left). Its a super fun small wave set-up that rarely holds bigger than head-high and peels perfectly for 40 metres+ along the reef ending in a key-hole channel close-out (great for reos and boosting airs). A popular spot with local groms. Surfable for 3 hours either side of high tide.
Info from surfingtonga.com ."Pass Lefts" It is a south swell set-up and is an "easy" wave to surf. Very popular with learners and those who like mellow waves. It rarely holds bigger than head-high and peels slowly around the reef into a defined channel. It can be hollow but isn't dangerous and far less challenging than other surfspots along the Ha'atafu coast. Once the swell gets overhead all the wave's energy focuses on a wide peak next to the channel that breaks into a fat shoulder. Rideable for 3 hours either side of high tide."Pass Right"This is a summer north swell righthander right across the channel from "Pass Lefts". Its a fun wave popular with beginners and those who prefer mellow, less intense waves. It has a barreling take-off section that runs for 15 - 20 metres before hitting a channel. The rest of the ride (30 metres) is a mellow shoulder which is great for beginners (up to shoulder high) as it has an easy take-off, a soft-breaking sloping face and is also quite deep so its not dangerous at all. There is a slight current sweeping into the channel through the inside of the break but its not strong on small - medium sized days and easy to escape if you paddle across the rip towards the main break. It gets a little more serious once overhead and is unsuitable for beginners as current in the pass intensifies. This spot needs a straight north swell to break well. Any west in the swell and it hits too square onto the shelf and mostly closes-out. Its definitely worth a paddle most days and is one of the more consistent summer surfspots. Surfable 3 hours either side of high tide.
Info from surfingtonga.comThis is a serious wave. Short, intense and a perfect barrel when conditions come together. Deep tubes the norm. Its a fickle surfspot requiring a strong south swell to break at its best. Any west in the swell and all the energy focuses to the end section ....... only half the usual length of ride. A favourite with bodyboarders. Can be ridden across low tide but best at mid - high. Good to wear some rubber here especially at low tide.
Info from surfingtonga.com. "Corners" breaks in both winter south swell season as well as during summer north swell season. However the waves character changes dramatically with the two swell directions. In winter its a very fickle wave and likes a strong clean south swell to really fire. When its on its a favourite with goofyfooters ...... a thick intense barrel rifles across the reef into a distinct channel. Any west in the swell tends to shut it down near the end section but still popular in these conditions with bodyboarders. Length of ride 40+ metres. Wear some rubber. Winter is best for intermediate to advanced surfers. Summer is a different story. Much more of a fun wave. A hollow take-off section barrels for 20+ metres before slowing and offering 30+ metres of fun hotdogging through to an inside (mellow) closeout. A fun wave for all skill levels ..... even beginners. "Corners" is surfable for 3 hours either side of high tide year round.Swell direction dosent really matter so long as there's swell there shall be a number of quality waves on offer as long as the wind is out of the E-SE, (offshore). when i win lotto im going to buy me the sickest yaught and live around these islands. so many unsurfed waves were visable from the plane flying from vava'u to ha'apai to tongatapu. you could litrally see lines of swell exploding on shallow reefs reeling left and right and spitting like crazy into deeper water on either shoulder. this joint rocks! just dont go telling everyone (hahaha) or it will one day be crowded.
Info from surfingtonga.comThis a south swell lefthander that breaks off the same peak as "Pass Rights" just across the channel from "Pass Lefts". It's a fast wave that rarely breaks with any quality or power and mostly closes out. A "B Grade" surfspot (thus a 5 rating) and not often surfed as it's simply outclassed by the other lefthanders on offer in the area. Surfable for around 3 hours either side of high tide.

An awesome wave. Good lefts in the winter southerly swells and good rights in the summers northerly swells. Its offshore in the south-east tradewinds. Gets dangrous from mid and low tides, with coral daggers occasionally jutting through the surface.
