About Agia Marina
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NE (53°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (233°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 1–6 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 50 m out (1 in 6). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 16°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 26°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually March, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Afrata, 0.4 km away (1 min by car).
Water about 21°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
