November: The Sea Breeze Takes Over
November is when the summer trade wind pattern starts to dominate again. Swell heights average around 3ft (1.0m) but the average period drops to 7.3 seconds - one of the lowest of the year - and the wave energy is dominated by E (25%), ESE (21%), ENE (17%), NE (11%), NNE (11%) and SE (11%). There is no shortage of swell direction; the problem is the wind.
Only 27% of the time do you get ideal offshore flow. NNW winds are the single largest category at 20%, while NE/ENE/E/ESE onshore winds push 23.6%. The result is a persistent lumpy texture and a lot of short-period, wind-affected surf. Water temps rise to 22.3°C, air temps average 22.3°C, and rainfall stays moderate at 3.20mm/day. Early morning is the only reliable window before the seabreeze fires, unless a passing trough or tropical low brings a stronger westerly flush and a burst of clean east swell.
