About Mount Augustine Peak

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

The spot faces NE (66°), so it takes swell from the NE. The wind blows offshore from the SW (246°). 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 gently: 10 m deep about 400 m out (1 in 40). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 12°C in August, its warmest (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves). No town nearby. Nearest beds: Homer, 107 km. Nearest airport: Iliamna Airport (ILI), 94 km.

Water about 7°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
