Seal Tub Beach
Edit SpotAbout
Surprisingly half decent break even in an onshore. Keep an eye on Buoyweather and you'll get a day or so notice.
Additional Info:
Was living in Weihai for six months and stumbled on this spot when I went to the restaurant. Breaks irregularly on a howling northerly but holds reasonable shape. Surfed at shoulder to head high. Buoyweather.com gives pretty good predictions. Only short swell window.

From the centre of Weihai head through the tunnel to the North West. Turn right at the coast road. The break is in front of a well known sea food restaurant. Cheng Chen or something like that. The restaurant keeps a seal in a 3m diameter pool - not impressed
