February: Late Summer Consistency
February behaves similarly to January, but the trade wind flow becomes slightly more organized and the ideal-window percentage pushes up to 43%. Average surf height remains around 4-5ft (1.4m) and average period ticks up a hair to 8.4s. The swell rose is full of ENE (15.9%), E (18.1%), ESE (19.1%) and SE (17.9%) energy, with about 68% of all waves arriving from the favorable E-SE quadrant. Wave heights cluster in the 4-5ft (1-1.5m) range, while the 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) class is well represented from ESE, SE and SSE directions. That means plenty of rippable, fun-sized waves on tap.
Wind remains the main issue. NNE (21.3%) and NE (17.3%) are the most frequent winds, blowing side-shore from the north and keeping the surface a bit lumpy on many days. Light SSW-SW sea breezes also appear more often by the afternoon, adding some variety. With air averaging 25.1°C and water temperature at 25.3°C, it is still summer: expect muggy conditions and afternoon showers, but plenty of groveling waves on the beach.
