The beach at "Pointe Venus" is on
the north coast of Tahiti. The reef is about 5 min.
paddling away from the beach. It is a small right extreme
with large tubes and little water underneath.
FAVORABLE WINDS
If the wind is feeble, less than 5
knots, all wind directions are good for surfing. For other
conditions please find hereafter the wind directions with
specifications.
South South-East, East South-East,
East, East North-East
North-East
SWELLS - GOOD TO SURF
North North-West
- Wave height in meters = (H1/3 in
meters) x L x 1. For the calculation of the wave
height, the coefficient "L" depends on the wavelength
of the swell. Use 1 for short swell, 1,5 medium swell
and 2 for long swell.
- Wave height between 1 and 2 m good
conditions.
- Comment : Fast wave
North, North North-East, North-East
- Wave height in meters = (H1/3 in
meters) x L x 0.8
- With a wave height between 1 and 2 m,
the spot is good.
- Comment : Nice waves.
UNFAVORABLE CONDITIONS
West to North-West swell is not good to surf and make this spot dangerous
if the waves are higher than halve of the height of the
good waves. Calculation of the height of the waves for
these conditions is : H = (H1/3) x
L x 1
