About Lebu beachie
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (330°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (150°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 5–20 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 400 m out (1 in 39). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 12°C in June, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 14°C in January, its warmest (4/3 wetsuit and boots). The town to stay in is Lebu, 1.5 km away (5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.
Water about 13°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
