October: Autumn's Final Hurrah
October is a transition month with plenty of leftover summer energy. Average swell height is still a healthy 1.1m (3.6ft), the period holds at 12.8s, and ideal wind improves to 78%. S swell remains the main source at 60.1%, followed by SSW at 34.7%. The 1-1.5m (3.3-5ft) class is well represented at 25.4% for S and 18.0% for SSW, meaning Acapulquito can still produce fun, rippable surf. Winds begin to shift back to a more consistent WNW and NW pattern, which keeps the east-facing cove cleaner. Water temperature remains warm at 29.4°C, air temperatures average 27.4°C, and precipitation drops to 0.70 mm/day. October often brings the last true summer-style groundswell of the year, and when it coincides with a morning offshore breeze, the conditions are fantastic.
