Statistiques de Surf de Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata)

This image shows the combination of swells directed at Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata) through a typical October and is based upon 3471 NWW3 model predictions since 2006 (values every 3 hours). The wave model does not forecast wind or surf right at the coastline so we have chosen the most applicable grid node based on what we know about Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata), and at Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata) the best grid node is 13 km away (8 miles). The rose diagram illustrates the distribution of swell directions and swell sizes, while the graph at the bottom shows the same thing but without direction information. Five colours illustrate increasing wave sizes. Blue shows the smallest swells, less that 0.5m (1.5 feet) high. These occurred only 19% of the time. Green and yellow show increasing swell sizes and red shows the biggest swells, greater than >3m (>10ft). In each graph, the area of any colour is proportional to how commonly that size swell was forecast. The diagram implies that the prevailing swell direction, shown by the longest spokes, was SE, whereas the the prevailing wind blows from the NE. Because the wave model grid is out to sea, sometimes a strong offshore wind blows largest waves away from Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata) and offshore. We lump these in with the no surf category of the bar chart. To avoid confusion we don't show these in the rose graph. Because wind determines whether or not waves are clean enough to surf at Tamarindo Playa Serena (Mar del Plata), you can load a different image that shows only the swells that were forecast to coincide with glassy or offshore wind conditions.
