Conditions at La Setenta in February
February: Late-Winter Consistency Holds
February stays in the prime window, though there is a subtle step down. Average heights ease to 2ft (0.6m), period to 5.9s, and the ideal wind window drops only slightly to 20%. NNW swell remains the biggest contributor at nearly 20% of observations, and the full N-through-NW quadrant delivers roughly 34% of all swell energy, with a healthy mix of 3-6ft (1-2m) waves. The trade wind background is a bit more present than in January, as ENE and E winds combine for more than 30% of the time; these are cross-shore to cross-onshore at this NW face, so they add texture to the surface. The best surf comes when winter lows track a bit farther south and NNW swell coincides with winds relaxing to the southwest. Water temperature is 25.7°C, air temperatures average 23.3°C, and precipitation is light at 1.00 mm/day.
