About Fiske Beach

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

The spot faces S (199°), so it takes swell from the S. The wind blows offshore from the N (19°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–10 ft of swell. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 18°C in July, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Moss, 1 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 4 wind sports spots.

Water about 9°C: 4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves. 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).

Rough cost (estimate): about US$1,480–US$2,720 each

about US$1,480–US$2,720 each · 6 nights, 2 sharing: flights, hire car, stay, food, board and wetsuit.
