April: The Shoulder Season Sweet Spot
April is the transitional month that still delivers. The average swell drops to 7.2ft (2.2m) and the period to 10.8s, but the directional focus is stronger than ever: SW is the clear workhorse, with WSW and SSW adding weight, and the vast majority of the swell energy comes from the ideal S-to-WSW quarter. This is also the month with the highest percentage of ideal surfing wind at 38 percent, though the balance begins to tip toward ESE/SE sea breezes on many afternoons. Water temperature climbs slowly to 6.3°C, average air sits at 5.0°C, and precipitation is drier at 4.65mm/day. Expect clean, head-high-plus waves with more organized shape-a genuine reward for those who want winter power without the deep freeze.
