November: Cleaner, Smaller, Highly Consistent
November marks the transition to smaller but cleaner conditions. Average height drops to 3.6ft (1.1m) and period to 12.9 seconds, but ideal wind climbs to 75% - the best of the year. Swell direction remains remarkably good: SSW 71.4%, S 14.7%, SW 9.4%, and WSW 0.7%. While 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) energy becomes rare, the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range is still solid, and a large percentage of waves in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) category keep the beach playful. Offshore ENE (35.5%) and E (15.6%) winds provide clean conditions. Rain drops to 3.90mm/day, water temp cools to 27.8°C, and air temps average 27.4°C.
