Conditions at Playa de Los Caballos in February
February: More of the Same, Slightly Colder
February keeps the winter standard high. Average swell is again 2.1m (7ft), with an average period of 12.8s. The direction distribution is nearly identical to January: NW 35%, WNW 18%, and NNW 14%, meaning the west-facing break stays busy. The slightly higher NNW component adds some variety, though those north-wrap swells can be less consistent until they bend into the bay. Waves in the 1-2.5m (3-8ft) band are well represented, and the 47% ideal wind rating keeps enough clean windows in the mix. The coldest water of the year at 12.9°C pairs with air temps averaging 9.5°C, so sessions are cold but rewarding. Rainfall drops a touch to 3.03 mm/day, but storms still parade across the North Atlantic. Look for a rising glass with an ONO/O/OSO/SO flow and you'll find excellent winter surf.
