Conditions at Anton Lizardo in April
April: Trade-Wind Transition
April delivers a noticeable drop in background energy as the Gulf transitions into spring. Average height falls to 0.9m and period to 6.1s, so waves become more gutless and drifty unless a late-season front sneaks through. The swell distribution shows ENE dominating at 38.2%, with NE still adding 27.4%, while the optimal N/NNE/NE/NNW combination falls to around 52%. The good news is winds are slightly more favourable, with ideal S-to-SW offshore flow at 23% of the time, thanks to a weaker pressure gradient and more sea-breeze cycles. Daytime onshores still plague the beach, but mornings can produce clean, fun-sized 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m) waves. Water temp rises to 26.3°C and average air temp hits 27.4°C. Keep expectations moderate - April is about making the most of small windows, not chasing size.
