Conditions at Punta del Confital in February
February: Midwinter Power Continues
February offers more of the same recipe, with a little more trade-wind consistency. The average height remains around 6ft (1.8m), the period 12.2s, and the swell direction pattern similar: NNW (41.8%) leads, followed by N (17.1%) and NNE (12.1%). The true south-west window is only 1.7% of the wave energy, but those longer-period waves can still rake along the reef if the direction includes any west in it. The real bright spot is the wind: NE (22.7%) and NNE (18.1%) are the dominant flows, and the wind is ideal for surfing 45% of the time. Onshore W/SW winds total about 7%, usually arriving with passing fronts. Water temp drops to 18.9°C, air averages 17.5°C, and there is still enough rainfall to keep the island green. It is a solid, dependable winter month - just don't expect the direction percentages to be kind to the ideal window.
