Conditions at Ilha dos Lobos in November
November: Shoulder-Season Lottery
November keeps the late-spring pattern of plenty of swell but unreliable wind. Average height is 1.6m (5-6ft), period is 8.5s, and ideal surfing conditions are only around 23%. The swell rose is again E/ENE-dominated (ENE 21.8%, E 20.4%, ESE 17.1%, SSE 12.9%, SE 12.5%), with lots of energy in the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) class. The mix can still produce solid surf, especially if a south swell combines with a frontal wind shift.
On the wind side, NE trades are stronger than any other direction at 22.6%, and ENE adds another 14.7%, so the default is bumpy. However, November is also a month of high variability: warm air (19.3°C), water warming to 20.4°C, and rain averaging under 4mm/day means the atmosphere is still dynamic. When you catch a post-frontal NW flow, you can score surprisingly good waves.
