Conditions at Guarita in November
November: Transitional Chop
November remains stuck in the spring trade-wind pattern. Average height is 1.6m (5-6ft), period 8.5s, and ideal wind is again 29%. Swell directions are firmly easterly: ENE 21.8%, E 20.4%, ESE 17.1%, SE 12.5%, SSE 12.9%, S 7.8%, NE 2.4%, SSW 1.2%. Long-period southern groundswell is the exception rather than the rule, and most of the surf is short-period trade swell bouncing off the SE-exposed sandbars. The wind regime is hostile to clean conditions: NE dominates at 22.6%, ENE 14.7%, NNE 11.1%, and SSW 7.4%, while offshore NNW is only 3.9% and NW 1.4%. Add in regular afternoon SW sea breezes and you get plenty of chop. Still, with 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) surf almost daily, it can be a fun grovel on a high-performance board, especially in the early morning. Water temperature warms to 20.4°C, air averages 19.3°C, and precipitation is 3.93mm/day.
