About Pigeon Point

Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.

The spot faces W (277°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (97°). 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 350 m out (1 in 34). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 27°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Cap Estate, 2.7 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 2 wind sports spots.

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).
