April: The Cleanest Window of the Year
April is statistically the best month for wave quality at Cabo Blanco. Ideal wind occurs 57% of the time - the highest of any month - and the average swell pushes up to 5.6ft (1.7m) with a long-period 14.1s. The dominant swell direction is SSW at 68%, with SW at 30% and only a sliver of WSW; that may not be the textbook W-NW angle for the spot, but the long, strong SSW groundswell wraps efficiently into the point, and the clean surface allows it to stand up nicely. S winds (33%) and SSW winds (26%) dominate, mostly at 10-20kph, with plenty of lighter windows. With water at 22.4°C, air at 24.8°C and precipitation only 0.48 mm/day, April combines solid size, high-period consistency and the most reliable surfable winds of the year.
