April: Camacho's Real Season Kicks In

April is where Camacho starts to fire. Favored directions now make up nearly half the wave rose - SE 16.4%, SSE 16.0%, S 14.1% - and average period lengthens to 9.3s. Swell height averages 5-6ft (1.7m), and the S/SSW component brings more organized groundswell into the SSE-facing beach. Ideal wind is 31%, one of the higher counts of the year, while NNE winds still blow at 22.9%. This combination of better swell angle and cleaner mornings makes April a reliable month.

Autumn stays pleasant: 22.6°C air, 22.9°C water, and the driest month of the year with only 2.75 mm/day of rain. The wind rose does show SSW and SW winds gaining strength (10.7% and 9.1% respectively), so afternoon sea breezes are a factor. Still, April offers some of the most consistent clean surf on offer all year.
