Conditions at Yin Yang in November

November: The Return Of The East Pulse

November offers a tantalising mix of old and new. The northeast monsoon is slowly rebuilding, while the southwest monsoon is still throwing waves into the atoll. Ideal wind is a respectable 49%, with W at 24.1%, WNW at 20.0%, WSW at 13.2% and NW at 10.4%. Swell direction is split between the south and the east: SE 14.4%, SW 15.4%, WSW 14.8%, S 13.5%, SSE 13.5% and SSW 13.4%. Average height drops to 1.1m (3.6ft) and the period shortens to 6.4s, so the surf is less powerful than mid-monsoon. The reappearance of SE and E energy is good news for Yin Yang's preferred direction, but you will need to be selective about tides and wind pulses to find clean, punchy waves.
