November: First Rumbles of the Winter Swell Machine
November is a solid month and a clear step up from the summer. Average swell height remains 3ft (0.9m), but the period is still long at 13.2s, and the directional mix is much more balanced. South and south-southeast swells still appear at S 17.4% and SSE 12.5%, but WNW at 13.5%, NW at 8.5%, W at 9.9%, WSW at 8.2%, SW at 8.6% and SSW at 11.6% all contribute, giving the reef a much better chance of seeing energy from the optimum directions. Ideal offshore winds jump to 28%, with N/NNE and NE flow common in the early morning. The competition between leftover south swell and incoming north-west groundswell means varied conditions, but in general November is an excellent month to start chasing bigger, more consistent surf. Water temp is 26.1°C, air temp averages 25.8°C, and rainfall climbs to 2.60mm/day.
