About Fulerayem Point

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

The spot faces NE (59°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (239°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits beginners and up. It works in 1–5 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 3.7 km out (1 in 370). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 28°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 31°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). For beginners the best months are usually October and November, with about 2 good days in 7; in February and June, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Songkhla, 1.9 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot.

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