April: The Transition Turns On
April is a brilliant transition month. The swell mix shifts to include 28 percent S, 68 percent SSW, and a touch of SSE, with an average height of 1.1m (3-4ft) and a strong 13.5s average period. About 96 percent of surf falls in the 2-5ft (0.6-1.5m) range, while a small percentage touches 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m). The SE trades are building, but ideal wind percentages remain at 35 percent, often in the early morning. This is a great month for Medewi because the longer-period S/SSW groundswell has more momentum and the monsoon westerlies are fading. Air temperature averages 25.6C, water temperature stays warm at 29.2C, and rainfall drops to 4.36mm/day, making it one of the drier months of the surf season.
