Conditions at Cronulla in November

November: Summer Seabreeze Returns

November looks like a summer month in the wind statistics. Ideal offshore wind drops to just 17%, while NE winds become the dominant wind direction. The swell distribution shows a clear return to ENE, E and ESE trade swell, with SE and SSE still present but less powerful. Average wave height remains 5ft (1.6m) and the period shortens to 8.3 seconds, which favors punchy beachbreak peaks over long grinding walls.

This is the classic 'dawn patrol only' period at Cronulla. The NE seabreeze builds almost every day and chops up the east-facing banks by late morning. However, if you catch a morning westerly or a pre-frontal north-west drift, the waves can be clean, rippable and fun. Water temp rises to 19.9°C, air averages 19.6°C, and rainfall sits at 2.75 mm/day. It's not the most consistent season, but it still beats flat.
