About Love Beach
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces N (340°), so it takes swell from the N. The wind blows offshore from the S (160°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–8 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 25°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Nassau. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot and 5 dive sites.
Water about 28°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
