About Coevity Island-Quest Cove

Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.

The spot faces E (93°), so it takes swell from the E. The wind blows offshore from the W (273°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 50 m out (1 in 7). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 26°C in July, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in April, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually January, February, March and December, with about 4 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Coetivy. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots.

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. 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).
