Conditions at P-Land in February
February: Peak Offshore Consistency at P-Land
February is the pick of the dry season. The average swell height holds around 2-3ft (0.5-1m), but the average period climbs to 12.8s, adding extra push to the SSW (86%) and SW (13%) groundswell. The real winner is the wind: ideal surfing wind registers at 46 percent of the time - the highest of the year - driven by the NE-ENE-E-ESE trade-wind corridor. This offshore flow keeps the west-facing lineup clean and lined up through the morning especially, with winds mostly in the light 0-10kph class and only occasional 10-20kph pulses. At 28.7°C water and a dry 0.46mm/day rainfall rate, February is as close to a tropical point-break guarantee as it gets in Panama. Bring the groveler and find plenty of rippable shoulders.
