Conditions at Muizenberg in November
November: Summer Wind Wins the Battle
November is the true beginning of the low season at Muizenberg. The average swell height holds at around 8ft (2.4m) and period sits at 11.3s, with SW (22.9%), SSW (16.2%), S (9.8%), WSW (7.3%) and SSE (5.1%) still filling the waverose. Yet the wind regime has shifted decisively onshore: SSE (28.7%), SE (17.9%), S (13.9%) and SSW (6.5%) account for roughly two-thirds of all observations. The offshore quadrant - NNW (6.2%), NW (5.4%), N (0.3%) and NNE (0.3%) - cannot compete, giving an ideal rating of just 13%. Air temperatures warm to 17.5°C, water to 16.7°C, and precipitation falls to 1.37 mm/day. The waves are still there, but they are often bumpy, wind-blown and difficult to read. Early mornings and specific sandbank tides are your best shot at a clean session.
