Conditions at Coke's in October
October: Transition, Bump, and Hope
October is the junction between the southwest and northeast monsoons. The southern groundswell is still present but starting to fade - average height drops to 1.0m and period falls to 7.6s. Swell directions become a mix of WSW at 19.5%, SSE at 16.9%, SW at 13.3%, W at 14.3% and SSW at 12%. That gives Coke's a decent percentage of SSE/S/SSW energy, but it is buried under westerly windswell and transition slop.
Meanwhile, winds are still westerly - W at 30%, WNW at 20% and WSW at 20% - and the ideal surfing wind sits at only 34%. Rain remains high at 5.64mm per day, with air at 27.5°C and sea at 29.0°C. The best sessions come when high pressure begins to ridge in from the north, generating clean NW/NNW flow and grooming the last SSE/S pulses. October is a fair, transitional month: there are waves, but patience and luck are required to pick off the clean days.
