About Kokrobite
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SE (153°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (333°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 2.7 km out (1 in 270). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 23°C in August, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 29°C in April, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually November, with about 3 good days in 7; in July and August, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Kokrobite, 0 km away (about 5 min by car).
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
