-
Wind&Waves
-
The frontal winds are mainly coming from southerly or westerly directions and are dependent on depressions, with the best winds occurring from fall to spring. The spot works wells in any wind direction except easterly and surfing conditions are excellent if you can catch a south or south west wind. The spot works best for just a few hours before and after high tide. The water tends to be quite choppy during high tide whereas other times offer excellent flat water conditions. The waves, if any are small, under 1 metre and the water is best described as being dirty, since the area is sited at the river mouth. The water temperature ranges from about 5oC in the spring to around 20oC in the summer, with air temperatures rising to as high as 30oC at the peak of summer. Out of season surfing can be extremely cold although not impossible.
