October: The Season Fires Up

The surf season reawakens in October. Average swell jumps to 5-6ft (1.7m) with a longer period of 7.9s, as the northeast monsoon strengthens. The swell direction is still predominantly NNE (45.7%) and NE (20.2%), but the energy is more substantial, with a 9.8% share of the 2-2.5m range from the NNE. Wind becomes more reliable: NE (32.4%) and ENE (17.9%) are the main players, yet the ideal wind window peaks at 57% - the best of the entire year. This means plenty of clean, groomed waves despite the less-than-ideal swell angle. Air cools to 25.9°C and water to 28.7°C, while rainfall drops to 6.36mm/day. October is one of the most surfable months, especially when the NW pulse aligns with those offshore wind windows.
