Conditions at Troia in February
February: Still Firing with Westerly Punch
February hardly lets up on January. Average swell remains a solid 6ft (1.9m) and period is still 12.9s, so the quality threshold stays high. The swell rose is again dominated by WNW/NW (59.7% combined), but W swell is 10.1% and the wider SW-W window contributes around 15% of directions. Broadly, February is a touch more variable than January - one week can be XXL storm surf, the next a lined-up W groundswell under blue skies.
Offshore winds are still well represented with 44% ideal conditions; NNE/NE/ENE/E directions sum to around 29%, and the strong NNW component (19.8%) can create sideshore texture between frontal passages. Average air temp lifts slightly to 11.2°C, precipitation is 1.79mm/day, and water temperature is at its coolest for the year at 14.7°C. If you want big, powerful Atlantic groundswell without summer crowds, February delivers.
