Conditions at The Bluff in November

November: Unsettled Winds and Shortening Periods

November is the beginning of the summer slide. Average swell drops to 4.6ft (1.4m), period shortens to 11.8s, and clean wind days fall to only 8%. The swell direction remains stuck in the SSW/SW corner - SSW 41.7%, SW 53.5% - with most surf in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) and 5-6ft (1.5-2m) range. The wind rose becomes more hostile, with S at 30.5% and SSW at 34.1%, and very little ESE/SE flow. The result is less consistency and more lumpy, wind-affected surf. Still, early-morning windows with light offshore breeze can produce fun, rippable waves before the wind ruins the party. Water temp rises to 23.0°C, air temp to 25.5°C.
