Secrets Sea Temperature

Sunny with very warm air temperatures, feeling like 27.0 °C once we account for any wind. Sea temperatures (23.8 °C) warm too. Staying warm in the water won't be a problem in board-shorts, but wear at least a rash-vest to keep the UV off.

Today, many surfers would wear a rashvest wetsuit.
