Conditions at La Santa Isquierda in February
February: Winter Power With More Trade Wind Threat
February matches January for raw energy. Average waves hold at 5-6ft (1.7m) and period remains 12.4s. The swell rose again shows a deep NNW bias (34.5%), with NNE at 19%, N at 13% and NW at 12%. With 64% of the swell from the favorable N-WNW quadrant, La Santa still sees plenty of organized, long-period groundswell. The catch is wind: the NE trade wind tightens its grip, as NNE alone accounts for 26% of observations and NNE+NE combine for 47%. Ideal windows drop to 12% of the time. Water temperature cools to 18.0°C, air sits at 17.4°C, and winter rain, though light at 0.53 mm/day, adds fresh swell-generation energy. Patience is required, but a good February offers some of the biggest, heaviest lefts of the year.
