September: The Spring Mix

September is the classic shoulder month: winter leftovers collide with the first hints of spring and summer swell. The average height holds at 5ft (1.6m) and the average period sits at 9.0s. SSE and S swells still supply the bulk of the energy, but the optimum NE, ENE, E and ESE window accounts for about 34% of the total swell, offering more variety than June or July. The ideal wind percentage remains respectable at 36%, although afternoon sea breezes start to become more of a factor as the days grow longer.

Water temperatures bottom out around 18.4°C and air temperatures rise to 16.3°C, with rainfall only 1.68 mm/day. Early morning sessions are the safest bet for clean, rippable surf before the breeze switches.
