Conditions at Juno Pier in April
April: Shoulder Season Transition
April signals the first real downshift in surf size. Average swell height falls to 3.3ft (1.0m), the period is 7.8s, and ideal wind is just 19%. The swell directions are still excellent-ENE leads at 20.5%, NE at 18.3%, E at 16.1% and ESE at 10.3%-so the Atlantic is still sending waves. But the wind field becomes increasingly dominated by E/ESE/SE/SSE/S, which together account for more than 50% of all wind observations. That puts a persistent onshore chop on the east-facing pier. Look for the occasional late-season cold front to swing the wind into the west and unlock clean, chest-to-head-high conditions. Otherwise, April is a longboard and funboard month. Water temp warms to 25°C (77°F).
