Epic righthand pointbreak. Bell's is fed by the huge southern ocean swells that consistently sweep through the Tasman Sea

Bells is split into several breaks best known of which are Rincon and Bell's Bowl. Rincon breaks over a ledge and the reels along the point and will work on most tides. The Bowl is the performance wave, breaking best at low tide and doing just what it says on the tin! On a big enough swell they can join together finishing up in the shorey
