Nothing has been measured or modelled for this place: twelve months and no figure in any of them. The months riders name are all there is.
riders' months
Riders and schools name these months. The model reads lower here, and both are shown rather than averaged.
Wind on the beach
What the spot record warns about
- minor shorebreak at high tide
- gusty frontal winds in winter
- busy weekends with beachgoers in summerSwimmers and summer beach traffic: keep the kite out of the flagged swimming area.
- Onshore or side-onshore easterly-sector wind leaves little room for error on a busy public beach.
- Surf can become large during easterly or cyclone-remnant swell, although normal conditions are smaller and more forgiving.
