October: A Shift Toward Cleaner Skies
October sees the monsoon reversing, and the surf begins to clean up. Average swell height is 1.5m (4.9ft) and average period 10.5s. The swell direction spreads more toward S (34.5%), SSE (25.0%), SSW (18.3%), and SW (11.5%) - all still mostly from the south. Crucially, the wind matrix starts to favor the western offshore sector: WSW (20.2%), W (19.4%), WNW (11.8%), SW (13.3%), and NW (4.1%). The ideal-wind percentage climbs back to 35%. With the SW monsoon easing, there are more clean NW/W windows; the wave heights remain solid, so quality sessions become more likely. Air temps stay warm at 27.5°C (25.4-29.3°C), precipitation is 6.15 mm/day, and the water is 29.1°C. October is a shoulder month where the synoptic setup can offer both size and tidiness.
