About Agate Beach North
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SW (238°), so it takes swell from the SW. The wind blows offshore from the NE (58°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 400 m out (1 in 40). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 10°C in January, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 13°C in June, its warmest (4/3 wetsuit and boots). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually September, with about 2 good days in 7; in January, February and December, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Agate Beach, 0.7 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 3 surf spots, 1 wind sports spot and 1 mountain bike area.
Water about 12°C: 4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
