Cumbria · open water conditions information
Biggar Bank (Walney Isl) is a coastal location in Cumbria, one of 33 Cumbria spots covered by NippyIndex.
The shore faces broadly south-west, so it is most open to wind and swell arriving from the south-west.
As a tidal location, its tide predictions are referenced to the nearest tidal station, Barrow (Ramsden Dock).
NippyIndex draws on published marine and weather data (sea state, wave information and water temperature), UKHO tidal predictions, and — for English coastal locations — Environment Agency bathing-water sampling where available.
