Findon Ness South
Big sea: up to 2.9 m today. A big sea can reach walls that are not marked tidal. Check the sea and the weather on the day before you commit to a route.
Walls
How sure
Tomorrow
Grey Wall: The models differ by up to 3 points at times between 09:00 and 18:00. This touches the best window.
Recess Wall and South Buttress: The models differ by up to 3 points at times between 10:00 and 18:00. This touches the best window.
Across the crag
- Rock now
- Wet. 1.0 mm of rain in 24 hours, 1.1 mm in 72.
- Low water
- Today 03:51, 16:12. Tomorrow 04:54, 17:06.
- Sea
- 2.6 m from the SE, 7 s wind sea. Up to 2.9 m today.
- Weather
- Nigg Bay to Findon point, shared along this stretch. Coast counted as facing ESE.

Today, Wed 21
Not climbable today. Best 09:00 to 12:00.
Tomorrow, Thu 22
Climbable from 13:00. Best 14:00 to 17:00.
Why
Even the best window is held back by rain and humid air (93% humidity).
What shapes this wall
- Sun
- Faces north and east in places, scored as N. Does not reach the face today.
- Sea
- Runs along the face, counted at 40%: 1.0 m at the wall.
- Tide
- Grip pulls the rock temperature harder towards the sea's, and counts spray from a 2 m sea rather than 2.5 m.
- Seepage
- Known to seep after rain.
- Birds
- Nesting on parts: some of the cliff is nested, but not the routes themselves. April to July, months not confirmed.

Grip is the blend of the three models. The points column shows the Met Office figures (the next model's where it does not reach), factors at zero left out. Wet risk is how many models have the rock wet, foggy or raining.
