November: The Monsoon Return and Fading Windows
November sees the pendulum swing back toward the northwest monsoon. Average swell height drops to 4.3ft (1.3m), the period settles to 12.8s, and ideal wind falls to 41%. Swell directions are still from SSW (49%), SW (23%) and S (19%), with a mix of WSW (6.5%) and W (2.5%) energy starting to bubble up. The most common wave height is 3-5ft (1-1.5m), but there are still some fun 5-6ft (1.5-2m) waves from SSW, SW, WSW and W. NW winds make a strong return (19%), with NNW (15%) and WNW (12%) adding more cross-shore texture. You can still find workable sessions, especially when the wind stays out of the east, but the consistency is clearly fading. Water temp is 28.8°C, air averages 27.1°C, and precipitation rises to 10.3mm/day, the wettest month of the year.
