About Mosquito bay Bommie
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces E (107°), so it takes swell from the E. The wind blows offshore from the W (287°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 150 m out (1 in 17). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 17°C in August, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 23°C in February, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually April, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Batemans Bay, 9.7 km away (about 20 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 5 surf spots.
Water about 19°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
