Beach near the settlement of Lygia, oriented to the south. The type of shore is not recorded.
Real shoreline from OpenStreetMap at a fixed scale so the diagrams are comparable with one another — the dot marks the beach.
The beach faces south. With northerly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with southerly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The orientation is computed from the shape of the shore; how much its bay shelters it has not been checked yet.
The shore faces south (197°), so from September to March the sun sets within its field of view, over the water. In the remaining seasons the sunset falls further to the side, over land.
An estimate based on the orientation of the shore — a headland or island opposite may hide the horizon.
In calm seas yes, but the water gets deep fairly quickly — normal supervision applies.
On days with northerly (offshore) winds or no wind at all. Check the live score on Beach Radar before you go — it updates all day.
No — it is an unspoiled beach with no facilities, so bring water and shade with you.
