Conditions at Playa del Borrego in February

February: Steady Swell, Sidling Offshore Flow

February continues the winter theme with 64 percent ideal wind and average wave heights of 2.6ft (0.8m) on a 13.0s period. The dominant swell directions are W (41.9 percent), WSW (28.1 percent), and WNW (20.3 percent), with SW adding 8.6 percent. That WSW component gives Playa del Borrego more squarely facing swell than January, making the west-facing energy wrap in a little more consistently. Wind conditions remain light, with the east-northeast quadrant (13.4 percent ENE) and NW/NNW flows (14.8 and 10.1 percent) battling for dominance. The key is to grab the early morning windows when the N to ENE offshore wind cleans up the long-period lines before the midday seabreeze adds texture. Air temperature warms slightly to 21.7°C, water temperature is 24.1°C, and rain stays minimal. It is a consistent, reliable winter surf month.
