  • neoprene wetsuit hood for warmth and a watertight seal in cold sea temperatures

Today, many surfers would wear a spring wetsuit and a neoprene hood.

The water temperature (19 °C) at Asling's Beach is quite warm but you will need at least quality spring wetsuit, and maybe neoprene hood because it will be cloudy with an effective air temperature of just (7 °C). No need for neoprene boots or gloves.

Actual sea surface water temperatures close to shore at Asling's Beach can vary by several degrees compared with these open water averages. This is especially true after heavy rain, close to river mouths or after long periods of strong offshore winds. Offshore winds cause colder deep water to replace surface water that has been warmed by the sun. Air temperature, wind-chill and sunshine should also be considered before deciding on the kind of wetsuit needed to stay warm when surfing at Asling's Beach.
