November: Deep-Water Winter Swells and Raw Storm Windows
November at Perranporth is a full-on winter month in disguise, with average swells of 6ft (1.8m) and an average period of 11.0s. The swell window is still very favorable - W 31.4%, WNW 14.0%, WSW 13.3% and NW 5.8% - and the distribution shows a solid concentration of 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft) west and west-southwest swell. The ocean has real power again, and exposed Perranporth will see consistent, lined-up Atlantic groundswell. Winds, however, become the limiting factor once more: WSW, W and SW winds are common, and the offshore east flow is only about 18% of the time. November is also the wettest month on average at 4.26mm/day, so successful sessions often hinge on cold fronts moving through quickly and clearing the wind into the offshore quadrant. Air temps drop to 10.6°C and water temps fall to 13.0°C, but for those willing to battle the weather, the reward is serious winter surf.
