October: Serious Swell Returns
October is a turning point when Martinique starts to wake up properly. Average swell height rises to 1.4m (4.6ft) with a period of 8.2s, and the wave rose becomes more balanced across the southern quadrant: SSW (14.4%), SE (12.9%), S (11.5%), SSE (11.2%) and SW (10.7%). The increase in size comes from the North Atlantic storm machine firing up again, with strong lows tracking near the Canadian Maritimes. The wind distribution is mixed but still favors WNW, NNW and NW, resulting in a 38% ideal wind score. Water temps cool to 12.5°C, air averages 11.8°C, and precipitation climbs to 4.06 mm/day as storm systems become more frequent. October offers a genuine taste of winter surf with slightly friendlier conditions.
