About Glennys

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

The spot faces W (262°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (82°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.0 km out (1 in 102). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 19°C in August, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 24°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually May and June, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Geraldton. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots.

Water about 21°C: 2 mm shorty. 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).
