Conditions at North Point in November
November: Summer Approaches and the Consistency Thins Out
November is the gateway to the slow season. Average swell height drops to 6ft (1.9m), average period falls to 12.2 seconds, and although SW still dominates the swell rose at nearly 39%, the frequency of large, organized swells becomes less reliable. WSW adds a useful 13.3%, but the energy is less consistent than in the spring months.
Wind patterns begin trending toward summer: SSE at 15.7% and S at 14.9% become the leading directions, with SE also around 11.5%. Ideal surf conditions drop to 15%, and the afternoons increasingly feature side and onshore seabreezes. Air temperatures warm to 17.1°C, water temperature rises to 19.1°C, and rainfall eases to 0.98 mm/day. Keep expectations realistic in November; the best waves come when a late-season Southern Ocean front or a solid E/SE offshore wind event breaks the pattern.
