About Arila right
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 sheltered to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 3–12 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 150 m out (1 in 16). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 15°C in March, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 26°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Sivota, 6.4 km away (about 15 min by car).
Water about 21°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).
