About Lances Right
Facing, offshore wind, exposure and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces NE (63°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (243°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits expert surfers. It works in 5–20 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 18). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 29°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in March, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Katiet, 0 km away (about 5 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
