Conditions at Playa El Mojon in April
April: Long-Period Southern Groundswell
April is where the swell window becomes ultra-consistent. SSW accounts for a massive 60.7% of all surf, with SW (15.3%) and S (10.9%) bringing the southern quadrant up to nearly 87%. This is the most focused swell directionality of the year, and for a beach exposed to the SSE, that's a very good thing. The average period reaches 13.8s - true groundswell - while average wave height stays at 4.9ft (1.5m). Expect clean, organised lines with real push, especially on sets in the 4.9-6.6ft (1.5-2m) range.
The offshore wind percentage remains healthy at 52%, though the warm season is edging closer: rainfall rises to 0.27 mm/day, and water temps climb to 83.5°F (28.6°C) with air at 74.3°F (23.5°C). The weather is still pleasant, but the tropics are waking up.
