November: Summer Windswell Grind

November is one of the less reliable months for Noosa quality. Average wave height stays around 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m), period drops to 7.7s, and ideal wind plummets to 31%. The swell distribution is dominated by E, ESE, ENE and NE, but the wind distribution is dominated by NNW, NW, NE and NNE - all bad to marginal for the north-eastern points. The offshore S/SSW/SW/WSW sector falls to just 8.5%, and rain starts to pick up with the approaching wet season. Water warms to 23.8°C and air to 22.8°C. Surfing is mostly limited to early sessions before the sea breeze kicks in; the occasional late-season East Coast Low can still produce a punchy window, but plan around the wind.
