About Surf camping Vietnam

Known for windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline). Facts: verified.

Water about 28°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 550 m out (1 in 54). The sea is about 25°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at intermediate level the best months are usually January, February, November and December, with about 5 good days in 7; in September, about 2. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. No bookable town within 50 km: the nearest, Nha Trang, is 72 km away. Nearest airport: CXR (CXR), 44 km.

Day scores are the conditions out of 80. Wind is the day's best reading: the mean and the gusts in knots (10 kn is about 19 km/h); the arrow points where it blows to. Shore: "side" is side-shore, blowing along the beach, the safe way; "side-on" and "on" blow in towards it; "cross-off" and "off" blow out to sea, and offshore scores nothing for kite and windsurf. Water is the open sea's waves near the spot: flat under 0.3 m, chop to 0.8 m.

Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.
