Conditions at La Boya in February
February: Same Waves, Sharper Windows
February follows the January formula with an average height of 3.5ft (1.1m) and a period of 6.4s. The directional mix remains ideal: ESE at 47.3%, E at 27.5% and ENE at 10.2% combine for more than 85% of total swell energy. The trade winds still own the wind rose, with NNE and NE pushing 36% combined, so the surf is often bumpy under an onshore breeze. Yet the early spring cold fronts can still drop south, flipping the wind into the offshore quadrant for a morning push. Those windows are worth waiting for-clean, sharp 3-5ft (1-1.5m) waves on an empty lineup. Water temp dips to 26.3°C (79°F), precipitation is low at 0.86 mm/day, and the daily air temperature average holds near 25.5°C.
