About Red rocks

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

The spot faces SE (150°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (330°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 1–6 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 350 m out (1 in 33). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about -1°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 22°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). No town nearby. Popova, 7 km away, is the nearest town we list; we have not checked places to stay there. Nearest place to stay we found: База Отдыха "Звезда", Владивосток, 6 km. Nearest beds: Vladivostok, 25 km (about 45 min by car). Nearest airport: Vladivostok International Airport (VVO), 65 km.

Water about 7°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. 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).
