About Ereaga
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NW (313°), so it takes swell from the NW. The wind blows offshore from the SE (133°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–12 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 250 m out (1 in 26). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 13°C in January, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 23°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually September, with about 3 good days in 7; in July, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Getxo, 0.4 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 5 surf spots and 2 wind sports spots.
Water about 16°C: 3/2 wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
