About Caletta
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (330°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (150°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 300 m out (1 in 28). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 19°C in January, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 23°C in September, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Corralejo, 6.7 km away (about 15 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 8 surf spots.
Water about 22°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
