Conditions at Tago River in April
April: Cleaner Winds, Smaller Surf
April is the classic shoulder month at Tago River. The average swell drops to about 4ft (1.3m) with a workable 9.3s period. The energy is now dominated by ENE (61%) and NE (35%), a strong optimal-angle mix, but most waves are in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) fun-to-good category rather than heavier winter bombs. The monsoon wind machine is breaking down: onshore N/NNE/NE/ENE winds fall to around 52%, the offshore S/SSW/SW/WSW sector doubles to about 6%, and ideal wind time rises to 16%. That makes April a more realistic month for clean, lined-up surf, especially as the Siberian High loses its grip.
The dry-season trend continues: average air temperature is 26.4°C (22.2-33.0°C), precipitation is only 6.63 mm/day, and water temperature climbs to 28.7°C.
