November: The North Monsoon Locks In
November is prime time for surf at Shivas. The average swell height is a modest 0.8m (2-3ft), but the average period is a healthy 11.0s and the northeast monsoon is now firmly established, bringing ideal surfing conditions 60% of the time. The swell rose shows a broad south-southwest-to-south energy: SSW (33.0%), SW (18.5%), S (18.1%) and WSW (8.8%). While the more southerly component is not the absolute bullseye for a southwest-facing beach, the long period allows a lot of energy to wrap and line up.

Air temperature is 26.8°C, water temperature is 29.0°C, and the lineups are clean and relatively uncrowded - if you can get time off work, this is the month to be there.
