    Cremorne Point sea water temperatures peak in the range 14 to 18°C (57 to 64°F) on around the 4th of March and are at their coldest on about the 21st of August, in the range 11 to 13°C (52 to 55°F). The warmest seasonal sea water temperatures at Cremorne Point in early March lend themselves to a 4/3mm wetsuit or a 3/2mm suit and 3mm neoprene boots. At its coldest in mid to late August, low sea water temperatures at Cremorne Point are suited to a 5/4mm or 5/3mm good quality wetsuit with neoprene gloves and 3mm boots. You will need a hood if it's windy or the air is cold.

    Actual sea surface water temperatures close to shore at Cremorne Point 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 Cremorne Point.
