Conditions at Yumuri in April
April: Trade Wind Transition
April marks the shift down in size, with average surf easing to 3ft (0.9m) and period dropping to 6.0s. The directional spread remains stuck in the east: ENE swell is 67%, NE swell is 15%, and E swell climbs to 10%. Most of it is small, in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) range, with only a small slice reaching 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m). With the trade winds still dominant-ENE at 36% and NE at 22%-Yumuri sees a lot of lumpy, groveling conditions. The ideal offshore wind frequency holds at 8%, but the swell is generally too small and too short-period to turn those clean windows into anything memorable. That said, on a sunny April morning with a light S/SW breeze and a waist-high ENE swell wrapping around the coast, there are still fun, rippable waves for a small board or longboard. Water temperature is 26.3°C, air temps average 25.9°C, and rainfall starts to pick up at 1.38mm/day.
