December: The Winter Cleanup Begins
December brings a return to classic winter-mode La Ticla. The average swell is 1.1m (3-4ft), period 13.7s, and the direction mix becomes more westerly: SW (35.3%), WSW (29.8%), W (16.2%) and SSW (16.5%). Sizes are more moderate - mostly 1-1.5m (3-5ft) - but the quality is high, and there are still pockets of 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) from the SW and W. Wind is the big draw: ideal conditions 61% of the time, with offshore NE/ENE flow locked in and very little rainy-season influence (0.28 mm/day). Air temps are pleasant at 25.8°C (78°F), water cools to 28.1°C (83°F). December is the gateway to the dry, glassy season - a month for clean, friendly waves and long surfs.
