About Salusand
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SE (148°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (328°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 2–7 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 500 m out (1 in 48). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 1°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 16°C in July, its warmest (3/2 wetsuit). The town to stay in is Logdea.
Water about 6°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).
