Conditions at Ulladulla Bommie in April
April: The Bommie Wakes Up
April marks the true onset of the autumn groundswell season. Periods push past 9s, water remains comfortable at 20.9°C, and the wind becomes markedly better-ideal conditions 45% of the time. The swell spectrum is now heavily weighted toward SSE (16.7%) and S (15.2%), with a large portion of those waves in the 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) and 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) bands. What makes this month special is the combination: Southern Ocean frontal systems are active enough to send long-period S/SSE groundswell, while the remnants of summer warmth and lighter WNW/NW morning winds keep the Bommie cleaner than in midsummer. Strong fronts can drag in SSW/SW slop, but a proper 9s S/SSE swell with NW/NNW offshore flow is one of the best waves you'll find all year. Air temps average 19.0°C.
