Being surrounded by both the Pacific Ocean on its eastern shores, by the Tasman Sea on its western shores and having nothing between it and the Antarctic but the roaring forties and the Southern Ocean, New Zealand is bound to get some great windsurfing and surfing. The four main windsurfing spots are around Christchurch on the South Island, the big lakes on the South Island, Wellington on the North Island and famously around Taranaki in the North Island also. However you can pretty much sail anywhere, it’s just that these areas are more consistent and well known.
