More about Orofara

Orofara is a consistent right-hand point break on a black sand beach with accompanying left-hand sections that work across all tidal stages. Peak waves reach 2.5 meters when north-northeast groundswell meets offshore south winds, conditions most reliable during the southern summer, particularly December. The break accommodates surfers from beginner to intermediate ability. Rocks and sharks are hazards present at this location.

Orofara sits within Mahina on Tahiti's north shore, approximately one kilometer from Ahonu, with river mouth accesses and a freshwater spring nearby. The beach attracts steady weekend crowds and is used regularly by local surf schools for group instruction. Access is straightforward from the town.
