Manu Bay Tide Poster
The world-famous left-hand point break at Manu Bay is Raglan's crown jewel, drawing surfers from across the globe to its long, peeling waves. The unique bathymetry of the harbour entrance creates distinct tide patterns that make every session different — this is a place defined by its tides as much as its legendary swells.

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.”

- 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.
