Conditions at Ingrina in September
September: Autumn's First Call
September is the pivot month. The average swell height is only 5ft (1.5m), but the average period jumps back to 10.4s, and the percentage of ideal wind conditions leaps to 36% - the best of the entire year. NW swell is still the main course at 47.1%, with NNW at 25.5% and WNW at 14.3%, but the underlying energy is longer and more organized than anything the summer threw at us. The wind remains a reliable NNW offshore flow at 46.0%, but with less intensity than August, so wave faces stay cleaner. Water temperature peaks at 19.3°C and air temps average 21.0°C. For many, this is the smartest surf month on the Algarve: fun-sized, clean, warm, and just before the autumn low-pressure train starts roaring.
