Ideal wind for surfing peaks at 26% - the highest all year - thanks to frequent WSW/W and NNW land breezes. Rain drops to just 1.68mm/day, air temps are cool at 19.1°C, and water temp falls to 21.2°C. The consistent offshore flow grooms the longer-period SE/SSE swell into beautifully lined-up peaks.
