February: Best Offshore Wind Window of the Year
February boasts the highest percentage of ideal surf wind at 28%, making it a prime month for clean, long-period conditions at Boca Damas. Swell direction remains locked in from SSW (87.7%) with SW (11.6%), and average size nudges up to 1.0m (3.3ft). The distribution still favors small waves - about 66% are 2-3ft (0.5-1m) and 34% are 3-5ft (1-1.5m) - but the 12.9s period gives them real push on the sandbars. Wind speeds are almost always below 10kph, which is critical because the dominant wind quadrant is still the light SW/WSW onshore flow. The dry season is at its peak, with just 0.86 mm/day of rain, 26.9°C air and 28.5°C water. Look for dawn patrol N/NE offshore mornings and you will find some of the cleanest, most user-friendly waves of the year.
