Conditions at Punta Roca in September
September: Wet, Mixed, but Still Punchy
September is the wettest month with 8.14mm/day of rain, and the wind quality drops to 53%. Average surf height remains 4.5ft (1.4m) at a 13.0s period, but the swell mix becomes more westerly - SSW contributes 73%, SW jumps to 16%, and S drops to 9%. This gives a slightly more west-angled swell, which is still good for the point but less perfectly groomed. The 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range still accounts for roughly 66% of the surf, and 5-7ft plus adds 30%. Water remains warm at 29.9°C. Chase tropical-storm-forced clean windows; they are less frequent but can be exceptional.
