April: Spring Transition and Lighter Trades
April is the beginning of the springtime fade, but it is still very surfable. The average swell height drops to 4ft (1.3m), and the period eases to 9.6 seconds. The swell spectrum becomes more NE-dominated, with NE at 36.6%, ENE at 25.9% and NNE at 21.2%; the pure north and NNW numbers shrink to just 6.6%. This means Table Top is getting more angled, shorter-period energy than during the winter months, and the waves can turn a bit more sectiony as a result.
On the wind side, the trades remain the main character-ENE at 30.3%, E at 22.2% and NE at 16.0%-but the ideal-wind percentage ticks up to 35%, giving surfers more clean windows than at any time since October. It is a classic shoulder-season trade-off: less raw size, but better surface conditions. With air temperatures warming to 26.1°C, water temperature at 26.9°C, and rain increasing to 2.56mm/day, the whole system is slowly shifting into summer mode.
