Conditions at Gokarna in February
February: More North in the Swell, Still Excellent Dry-Season Surf
February keeps the dry-season template alive with an average swell height of 2.6ft (0.8m) and an average period of 8.8s. The dominant swell directions are again WNW and NW, supplying 28.5% and 30.0% respectively, with W at 18.1% and WSW at 11.9%. The NW component carries a bigger share of 3.3-4.9ft (1-1.5m) waves, so February can offer a little more push than January on the best days. The trade-off is wind: ideal offshore conditions drop to 32%, while NNW winds account for 24.7% of the surface flow and WNW/NW winds add further texture. Still, the NE/ENE/E offshore quadrant produces plenty of clean windows, especially in the morning. With 25.8 degrees C air, 28.2 degrees C water and only 0.07mm/day of rain, February is a solid bet for clean, fun-sized surf when the wind plays ball.
