About Monogaga
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SE (124°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (304°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–12 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 400 m out (1 in 38). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 23°C in August, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 29°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Monogaga.
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. 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).
