Today's Surf Conditions at Cocal
Best Surf Season & Climatology
Best Surf Season (May - September)
From May through September, the southern hemisphere winter storm track is at its most active, and Cocal, facing south-southwest, receives a nearly non-stop supply of long-period SSW and S groundswell. Average wave heights sit in the 1.3-1.4m (4-4.5ft) range and periods hover around 13-14s. This is the green season, when the ITCZ shifts north and rain is frequent, but early-morning offshore N/NE winds still show up 45-63% of the time. If you time the lulls and dawn patrol windows, this is the reliable, full-bore surf season.
