About Venus Beach
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces W (255°), so it takes swell from the W. The wind blows offshore from the E (75°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 150 m out (1 in 17). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 17°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 28°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Paphos, 2 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots, 1 wind sports spot and 1 dive site.
Water about 23°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
