About Rabochiy
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SE (126°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (306°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–7 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 250 m out (1 in 25). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 9°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 26°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For beginners the best month is usually January, with about 2 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Alushta, 2.6 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 mountain bike area.
Water about 15°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. 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).
