Orientation, sun and shore

JunDecNESW

The shore faces south-south-west (200°). Open water fills about 53% of the horizon close by, which makes it an exposed spot with water on most sides.

The sun sets over the sea in every month; in mid-June it goes down at 17:27 local time on a bearing of 293°.

Sunrise is over the sea in November–January.

Straight out to the south-south-west there is open water for more than 2,000 km, so the beach is exposed to long ocean swell. The beach is on an island of about 127,248 km².

About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 12 m deep and 40 m at 3 km. Behind the beach the ground is about 86 m above sea level 500 m inland and 139 m at 1.5 km, so the beach is backed by steep slopes or cliffs.

Within 1 km, the land is 94% tree cover and 5% grassland (satellite land-cover map, 2021): a largely natural setting. Water makes up 48% of that circle.
