75% northerlies and 15-20% southerlies. Eastbourne does not work in true South to Southeast conditions. The wind is very unstable in those conditions and cross offshore. If there is too much West in the wind direction the wind can become unstable too because of the hills/mountains just inland.
From Wellington to Lower Hut, then south along the coast until you reach Eastbourne. Along the waterfront until you get to the parking at the rugby/sports club.
