About Cemeteries

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

The spot faces E (96°), so it takes swell from the E. The wind blows offshore from the W (276°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–8 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 28°C in February, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually September and October, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is General Luna, 1.9 km away (3 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 5 surf spots.

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
