Conditions at Playas del Este in November

November: Winter Swell Builds

November delivers the strongest winter signal yet. Average height is back up to 1.2m (3.9ft), average period to 5.8s, and the N/NNW/NW sector contributes 18% of all swell. More importantly, the distribution includes solid chunks of 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) and 2-2.5m (6.5-8ft) waves from the northeast and east-northeast sectors, which can wrap into the northern shoreline under the right conditions. However, the wind is ideal only 13% of the time, as ENE and E winds remain dominant. When a south or southwest offshore breeze lines up with a north swell, conditions can be surprisingly good. Water temp cools to 27.4°C, air temp to 24.9°C, and rainfall is low, making it a prime month for dedicated surf trips.
