Conditions at Curl Curl in February
February: Warm Water, Turbulent Flow
February rarely lets Curl Curl show its best face. Average wave height is still decent at 5-6ft (1.7m) and the period has ticked up slightly to 8.8s, but the wind regime is still summery and messy. E (17.1%), ESE (17.2%), SE (17.8%) and SSE (15.6%) dominate the swell spectrum, with ENE also adding 15.4%; the 3-6ft (1-2m) classes are consistently full. Wind data continues to favor NE (13.6%), SSE (12.8%), S (11.4%), ENE (10.7%) and NNE (10.2%), leaving Curl Curl exposed to cross-shore and onshore texture for much of the day. Ideal offshore winds are present just 21% of the time. The ocean is at its warmest at 23.1C, while air averages 22.6C and precipitation rises to 4.36mm/day, reflecting the humid, convective summer pattern. A decaying tropical cyclone or a Tasman low can create a surprise window of bigger ESE/SE swell, but on average the quality caps out at 'fun with clean chances early' rather than firing all day.
