About suicidio

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

The spot faces NW (307°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (127°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 4–18 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 21). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 22°C in July, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 27°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, 1.4 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 3 surf spots.

Water about 23°C: 2 mm shorty. 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).
