Mangamaunu Tide Poster
With the Seaward Kaikōura Range rising straight from the ocean, Mangamaunu is one of the world's most scenic point breaks. The deep water close to shore means the tide has a unique signature here — less dramatic in range but exquisitely sensitive to the swell direction, creating world-class waves that peel down the rocky coastline.

What people are saying
“Love the piece, such a unique artwork with meaning. As a keen surfer and a designer I ordered one for myself when I discovered it on Instagram, and may purchase another one as a gift.”

- Paper & printingMuseum-grade Enhanced Matte paper (230gsm) — a luxurious flat matte surface with sharp detail and rich colour. Printed using archival pigment inks on professional Epson equipment. Each poster is individually inspected before shipping.
- FramingFrames are sustainably sourced solid wood, handmade in New Zealand, and arrive ready to hang with hardware pre-installed. Glazing protects your print. UV protection and anti-reflective coatings can be added on request. Note: our framed prints do not include a mat bevel-cut card border by default; if you’d like one, get in touch.
- DataOfficial tide data from Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) — precision tide data used for maritime safety and coastal planning. Every high and low is calculated from verified readings.
- EditionEach poster captures the complete tidal rhythm of your chosen beach for a full calendar year — the patterns shown will never repeat exactly the same way again. Tides follow lunar cycles so the artwork is timeless, but we anchor each edition to a specific year as a unique snapshot of that place and time.
