About Dayana Pura / Seminyak

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

The spot faces W (257°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (77°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 550 m out (1 in 56). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 26°C in August, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). For beginners the best month is usually March, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Seminyak, 1 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 8 surf spots and 4 wind sports spots.

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
