Ventnor Esplanade

Ventnor Esplanade is an S-facing reef break in Ventnor, Isle of Wight, United Kingdom. It picks up swell from SW to WSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 89% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the N: light winds or N breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while S onshores chop it up.
