About Infinities
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SE (142°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (322°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 3–12 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 150 m out (1 in 15). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 14°C in July, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 19°C in February, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is Apollo Bay, 3.3 km away (about 10 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 9 surf spots and 2 wind sports spots.
Water about 15°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
