November: Prime Time Offshore Flow
November is the true opening of prime season at Barra de la Cruz. Average height is 4.9ft (1.5m), period is 12.1s, and the wind statistics are the best of the year, with ideal offshore flow 62% of the time. The swell mix becomes more balanced: SSW is still top at 30.3%, S at 22.0%, and NE/ENE together contribute 21.3%. That combination of long southerly groundswell and punchy trade-wind swell is what makes November so good. Most waves fall in the 3-6.5ft (1-2m) range, with a few larger 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) sets from the eastern quadrant. Rain drops to 0.51mm/day, water temp cools to 27.9°C, and the N/NNE offshore flow becomes the dominant wind signal. This is as good as it gets for long, clean, mechanical waves.
