About Coles Point

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

The spot faces W (282°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (102°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 3–11 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 18). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 15°C in July, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 19°C in February, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For beginners the best months are usually April, August and October, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Mount Dutton Bay. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.

Water about 17°C: 3/2 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).
