October: Swell Holds and Wind Cleans Up
October is a glorious transition month. The average swell height eases only slightly to 5ft (1.5m) and the period remains strong at 13.3s, while SSW still leads the spectrum with 57 percent. S adds 23 percent and SW 8 percent, so the south-southwest groundswell train is still running. The 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) class is still well stocked, especially from SSW, which means there are plenty of quality waves between the smaller easier summer days and the bigger hurricane swells of September.
Wind quality improves significantly: ideal wind rises to 57 percent as light WNW, NW and NNW offshore flow returns with more consistency. Water temperature stays warm at 29.2°C, air temperature at 28.6°C, and rainfall drops to 3.77mm/day. October is one of those months where the surf is still solid, the water is still warm, and the afternoon sea breeze is less aggressive - a strong pick for a surf trip.
