April: More Offshore Wind, Less Swell
April is the classic shoulder-season tease: the wind rose finally starts to offer more northerly offshore options, yet the wave table loses whatever winter punch remained. Average height falls to 0.4m (1.3ft), average period to 3.4s, and the favorite SW-family directions, while still present - SW at 15.2%, WSW at 12.5%, W at 10.6% and SSW at 7.3% - are overwhelmingly confined to the 0-0.5m category. Waves over 1m are almost nonexistent. On the bright side, combined N/NNE/NE/ENE winds reach about 21% of the time, and the 10-20kph NNE/NE flow can occasionally groom a small SW windswell into clean, rideable micro-ramps. But the onshore quadrant still rules over 39% of the time, and the ideal-wind share remains 0%. Air temperatures warm to an average of 6.0°C, with a min of -9.9°C and max of 23.1°C, as precipitation increases to 2.33 mm/day. The water remains cool for the season, so a good spring wetsuit is still essential.
