About Fujairah Port
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces E (94°), so it takes swell from the E. The wind blows offshore from the W (274°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 1–5 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.0 km out (1 in 104). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 24°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 33°C in June, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Fujairah, 3.4 km away (about 10 min by car).
Water about 28°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).
