November: Wind Improves Again as the Rain Begins to Ease
November is an underrated month at Los Destiladeros. The SSW swell share eases slightly to 82.5%, with SW adding 10.3%, but the average period remains a healthy 12.3s and heights hover around 3-4ft (1.0-1.1m), mostly in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) and 3-5ft (1-1.5m) classes. The real story is wind: ideal offshore flow rebounds to 57%, with NNW (22.8%), NNE (8.3%) and N (7.6%) providing plenty of clean windows. Rainfall is still high at 10.9mm/day and water temperature is 28.3°C, but the surf quality is better than the wet-season reputation suggests. Look for early-morning pulses of long-period SSW energy groomed by the offshore flow - those sessions deliver clean, rippable walls and some of the most user-friendly waves of the autumn.
