Conditions at Costa Navarino in February
February: Winter's Second Punch
February is almost a carbon copy of January, with the averages dipping only slightly: 3ft (1.0m) of swell and a 6.4s period. The preferred W/SW window actually widens a touch, accounting for 46% of the directional spectrum, and WSW jumps to a dominant 18.9%. This is the month with the highest percentage of WSW swell of the entire year, which is about as good as it gets for a WSW-facing beach. A fair amount of that energy sits in the 1-6ft (0.3-2m) range, so sessions can be fun, racy and rippable when the wind cooperates.
Offshore winds blow 33% of the time, keeping January's winter rhythm going. The wind rose still features large NW and NNW contributions, but those are background; the cleaner NE/ENE/E corridors are the ones to watch. Water temperature drops to 15.5°C, the coolest of the year, and the air averages 10.4°C with 2.74 mm/day of rain. This is a thick wetsuit month, but it is also one of the most consistent surf months on the calendar.
