September: Last Call for Offshore Consistency
September keeps the monsoon quality train rolling, with the highest percentage of ideal offshore wind of the entire year at 39%. Average swell is around 3.3ft (1m) with a solid 8.9s period. The wave-direction mix is very similar to August - SSE and S provide the bulk of the energy, while a slightly larger SE component begins to sneak back in. Winds remain predominantly SSW-SW-WSW, so most days are still clean despite increasing seasonal variability. Rain peaks at about 4.3mm/day, but that is simply the monsoon doing its job. Air temperatures are still warm at 28.4°C and water temps sit at 29.2°C. Chase a westerly wind window and September can deliver fun, open-face surf before the northeast monsoon flips the script.
