About Barbie's Eyes Stomio
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces W (261°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (81°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–13 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 19). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 16°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 26°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Keramoti, 4.9 km away (about 10 min by car).
Water about 22°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
