Conditions at Adonis in April
April: Glassy Windows and Southern Ocean Groundswell
April delivers the highest ideal wind score of the year at 60%, and the average swell period peaks around 12.0s, the unmistakable signature of distant Southern Ocean storms. The catch is that the swell angle steps significantly into the SSW/SW sector, with only about a third of the wave energy arriving from due south/southeast. For Adonis, this means plenty of glassy, groomed water but sometimes less consistent or less direct lines hitting the reef. Average size is still a manageable 1.0m (3.3ft), and the quality is generally high. Precipitation increases to 4.05 mm/day as the intermonsoon pattern becomes more showery, while air temperatures reach 28.4°C and the water warms to 29.9°C. Chase the days when WNW/NW winds coincide with a more southerly swell angle, and you will find some of the most purely enjoyable waves of the year.
