February: Power and Consistency in the Westerly Window
February is arguably the most reliable month of the year at Kai's Place. The average swell is 2.7m (8.9ft) at 11.8s, and the percentage of energy from the ideal WSW direction jumps to 13.5%, with SW adding another 12.5%. Those two directions alone account for a quarter of all wave energy, and much of it falls in the 1.5-2.5m range - chest to well-overhead, with occasional bombs. The offshore wind signal is just as strong: E, ENE, ESE and SE winds represent close to 38% of the wind rose, producing 28% ideal conditions. Water temperature is at its annual minimum of 5.5°C (41.9°F), so wear the thickest rubber you own. February may not have the daylight or warmth of summer, but it delivers some of the best-conditioned, hardest-working surf of the year.
