February: Long-Period Consistency
February continues the dry-season dream with a slightly longer average period of 12.9 seconds and the same average swell height of 0.7m (2-3ft). SSW swell accounts for 89.3% of the wave rose, while the NE/NNE trade wind combination makes up more than 60% of all wind directions, keeping ideal surf conditions around 72%. The character of the surf is clean, rippable and unusually regular - Punta Roca's reef and point structure transforms the modest South Pacific background swell into long, racetrack walls. Rainfall is the lowest of the year at just 0.43 mm/day, and water temperature stays warm at 28.1°C. If you want consistent offshore mornings without crowds, February is a prime month.
