About La Loberia
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SW (218°), so it takes swell from the SW. The wind blows offshore from the NE (38°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–10 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 19). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 22°C in July, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 27°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually March, with about 6 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, 2.7 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 3 surf spots.
Water about 23°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).
