Conditions at Vouliagmeni in April
April: Small Grovellers in Warmer Air
April is the first month where summer's flatness starts to creep in. The average swell height falls to 0.6m (2ft), average period to 4.5s, and ideal wind drops to 18%. The favourable SE/SSE/S/SSW sector actually makes up a high 40% of the wave rose, but it is almost all sub-half-metre micro-swell: SSW still leads at 22.8%, but 12.4% of that is under 0.5m. Offshore N/NW/NNW winds still blow frequently, and air temperatures warm to 14.6°C with water at 16.1°C. This is a month for longboards and low expectations; the few better swells come from the tail end of Mediterranean lows and are best on the more exposed breaks in the area.
