About Le Jetty, St Pierre
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SW (206°), so it takes swell from the SW. The wind blows offshore from the NE (26°). 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 moderately: 10 m deep about 300 m out (1 in 29). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 24°C in July, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 28°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Saint-Pierre, 0.6 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 2 wind sports spots.
Water about 26°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
