Conditions at Burleigh Heads in November

November: Onshore Trade Wind Slop

November is the beginning of the summer lull at Burleigh Heads. The average swell height remains 1.0m (3.3ft), but the average period shortens to 7.3s and ideal wind drops to 14%. The swell window is still promising: E (24.6%), ESE (20.8%), ENE (17.3%), NE (10.9%) and NNE (11.1%) mean the east coast is producing waves. The problem is the wind, with NNW (16.5%), NNE (9.5%), N (6.8%), NE (6.4%) and E (6.5%) all adding onshore slope to the surface.

Air temperature bumps up to 22.6 C (73 F), water to 22.9 C (73 F), and rainfall increases to 3.08 mm/day. Occasional SE and SSE surges can clear things out for short periods, but you will want to save the high-performance days for the winter months.
