The is replacing Jeffereys Bay with the left-point of Manu Bay in Raglan, New Zealand this year. The event will go off on the North Island’s west coast May 15-25, deep fall in the Southern Hemisphere and an ideal time for waves at the famed pointbreak.

“We love J-Bay and the community there, and we’re really grateful to them for welcoming us for so many years,” said the WSL’s CEO Ryan Crosby in a press release. “It’s undoubtedly one of the best waves in the world, and we will continue to explore ways to return in the future. That said, we have made the difficult decision to pull Jeffreys Bay from the 2026 CT calendar.”
