Conditions at Arma di Taggia in April
April: More S/SE Swell, Less Period
The wave rose in April tips even further toward the southwest, with SSW swells at 31.2% and SW at 15.4%, yet the S (11.9%), SE (9.5%), ESE (8.2%) and SSE (6.5%) quadrants combine for a healthy 36.1% - the largest share of directly favourable swell of the year. The problem is the energy behind it: average height drops to 0.5m (1.6ft) and period to 5.3s. That means the bay receives short-period, locally generated swell, often under the influence of a strengthening spring sea breeze. Ideal winds fall to 10%, with NE and SW winds sharing control. Air temperatures warm to 12.1°C, but precipitation jumps to 2.40mm/day, keeping the mountains lush and the surf line choppy. For the average surfer, April remains marginal: small, quick, and requiring patience for a clean window.
