Frequently Asked Questions

What tide is best at GT's?

The GT's profile favors low to mid tide, ideally between 0.3m and 1.2m on the local tide chart. Compare this preference with the forecast tide and local conditions before choosing a session.

What wind direction is offshore at GT's?

The GT's profile uses wind from ENE (67°) as its preferred direction, with an offshore range of 37° to 97°. Wind speed matters too: light winds outside that range can still produce surfable conditions, while strong offshore winds can make takeoffs difficult.

The GT's scoring profile favors swell from SW (210° to 250°), a swell-height range of 1.2m to 2.4m, and a reference period of 14s. These are model inputs, not guaranteed breaking-wave heights or a promise that the surf will suit every ability.
