About Ciammarita
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (318°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (138°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 1–6 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 350 m out (1 in 35). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 15°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Trappeto, 2.1 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot.
Water about 20°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
