Conditions at Broken Head in February
February: Peak Humidity and Consistent E/ESE Groundswell
February keeps the summer pattern locked in. Average wave heights rise to 5-6ft (1.7m) and average periods stretch slightly to 8.9s. E and ESE dominate with 52% of the energy, backed by a solid share of SE and SSE swell. In fact, the NE-ENE-E-ESE quadrant still generates more than 60% of Broken Head's waves. It is a similar story in the wind department though - ideal offshore days remain at just 24%, with strong NNE, NE and SSE flows often competing. Water temperature peaks at 25.4°C and air temps average 24.8°C, while rainfall reaches 5.89mm/day. The high humidity and onshore afternoon sea breeze mean you need a dawn patrol westerly or a tropical low's backside to unlock the 5-6ft walls.
