Conditions at Cabo Blanco in February
February: Peak Water Temp and Heavy SW Lines
February holds the same high-quality summer regime, though the swell direction tightens up. The average swell remains at 5ft (1.5m) with a 14.0s period, but the source is even more SW-dominant: 57% from SW, 21% from WSW, 15% from SSW, and just under 6% from straight W. The long period keeps the ocean powerful, but for NW-facing Cabo Blanco the lack of W-NW swell means you are relying on refraction to bring the best waves to the break. Wind quality remains good at 50% ideal, with S and SSW breezes in the 10-20kph range the most common; the stronger 20-30kph flow shows up more often in the SW sector. Water temperature peaks at 24.4°C, air temperatures average 25.7°C, and precipitation is still modest at 1.48 mm/day, making February some of the most comfortable surf weather of the year.
