Conditions at Poro Point in April
April: The Fading Glimmer
April is the arrival of the low season. Average swell height bottoms out at 0.6m (2ft), and the period crashes to 5.8s. The direction becomes a mix of decaying north pulses - N at 47.0%, NNW at 26.7%, NNE at 13.5% - with only a whisper of WSW (1.4%) and W (1.7%) energy. Surfing winds are ideal just 17% of the time, as SSE (19.0%) and NNW (20.6%) battle for dominance. The spot is exposed to the southwest, so these short-period, north/northwest waves are generally poor and mushy. Any clean morning with an offshore flow is a bonus, but the majority of the month is flat or windblown. Air temperature climbs to 28.6°C, water soars to 28.7°C, and rain begins to build to 2.13 mm/day. Unless a rare cyclone sits in the South China Sea, April is for surfing elsewhere.
