About Krioneri PARGA

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

The spot faces S (194°), so it takes swell from the S. The wind blows offshore from the N (14°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–7 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 150 m out (1 in 16). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 16°C in January, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For beginners the best months are usually January, February, November and December, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Parga, 0.5 km away (about 5 min by car). 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.
