About Conjola Beach

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

The spot faces SE (124°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (304°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–10 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 900 m out (1 in 88). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 17°C in August, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 23°C in January, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually April, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Conjola, 5.2 km away (about 10 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 6 surf spots.

Water about 19°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
