Conditions at Multedo in December
December: The Statistical Peak
December is the statistical peak of the surf year at Multedo. The average wave height holds at 3ft (0.9m), the period at 5.6s, and the ideal wind window reaches its annual maximum at 52%. SW swell dominates with 26.6%, SSW adds 10.6%, and the NNW contribution (13.9%) suggests plenty of local fetch being generated in the Ligurian Sea. By far the most common waves are the punchy, short-period 2-3ft (0.6-1m) windswell, but there is also a healthy share of 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) and a diminishing but real 5-8ft (1.5-2.4m) class during active storm episodes. When a low pressure spins up over the Gulf of Genoa and the wind swings into the N/NE quadrant, Multedo works about as well as it ever does. Air temps average 4.8°C and water temps have cooled to 15.6°C, so it's cold, but this is the time to score.
