November: The Dry-Season Shift
November marks the real return of dry-season surf. Rainfall collapses to 1.45mm/day, ideal wind jumps to 65%, and the offshore N/NNE/NNW flow re-establishes itself across the coast. Average swell height eases to 4ft (1.2m), period is still a powerful 12.7s, and SSW continues to drive the point with 80% of the swell. The surf is mostly in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, with about a quarter of the waves on the smaller 2-3ft (0.5-1m) side. Water temperatures remain comfortable at 29.1°C. This month rewards surfers who can wait for the wind to go offshore and the South Pacific to deliver its first solid winter groundswell.
