Conditions at Cauit Point in April
April: The Trade Wind Swell on the Decline
April is the transition from the northeast monsoon into the pre-summer lull. Average swell height drops to 0.9m (3ft), and the period remains around 9.1s. ENE still dominates - 78% of all waves come from that direction - but much of the energy is now only 0.5-1m (2-3ft), so it is more of a windswell mix than a proper winter groundswell. The wind field becomes more diffuse: NNE, NE, ENE and E each contribute 11-14% of the wind, while the SW-to-W offshore component becomes slightly more common. Ideal wind rises to 16%, and rain drops to 6.2 mm/day, so the overall vibe becomes friendlier. Expect smaller but cleaner, grovel-friendly conditions in warm 28.5°C water.
