Wanyapu does not suit beginners. This is the forecast for intermediates, so you can see what it does.

About Wanyapu
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SW (235°), so it takes swell from the SW. The wind blows offshore from the NE (55°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 100 m out (1 in 9). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 26°C in August, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in March, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best month is usually April, with about 5 good days in 7; in July and August, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Leteloko. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots.
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
