About Rhodos - Meltemi Power Rhodos
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces N (341°), so it takes swell from the N. The wind blows offshore from the S (161°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 4–16 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 50 m out (1 in 7). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 18°C in February, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Koskinou, 7.2 km away (16 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 2 wind sports spots.
Water about 22°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
