November: Winter Swell Meets Strong Offshore Flow
November is one of the best months of the year at Salt Creek. The average swell height is 2.6ft (0.8m), but the average period is a solid 12.8s, and the North Pacific is starting to fire. The swell window is stacked - WSW (36%), W (26%), SW (26%) and SSW (9%) - with a good mix of 3-5ft (1-1.5m) waves and the first proper 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) pulses of the season.
Even better, ideal offshore wind returns to 49%, led by NE (15%), NNE (8%), ENE (7%) and E (4%). That means clean, glassy conditions are common, especially in the mornings. Air temps drop to 16.2°C, water temps cool to 16.9°C, and rain increases to 0.81 mm/day. This is the start of the premium winter window.
