Conditions at La Boya in November
November: Swell Size Meets Cleaner Winds
November is one of the best months for La Boya in terms of scoring actual waves. The average height climbs to 3.3ft (1.0m) with a period of 5.8s, and the directional spread broadens: E (28.6%), ESE (37.3%), ENE (15.8%) and NE (6.4%) combine for a nicely mixed trade swell window. Ideal wind stays high at 16%, as frontal boundaries from the north frequently push the wind into the W/WNW/SW offshore quadrant. The waves are still average-period and wind-driven, but when the offshore flow lines them up, they turn crisp, punchy and rideable on the east-facing banks. Water remains warm at 28.3°C (83°F), air drops to 26.6°C, and November is the wettest month at 2.40 mm/day.
