December: Northeast Monsoon Builds, Wind Wins
December slams the door into the low season. The northeast monsoon is strengthening fast, with ENE wind at 27.5%, NE 18.7%, E 8.9% and NNE 6.3% - all onshore for this east-facing spot. Ideal wind drops to 22%, and a lot of the month sees 20-30kph onshore and lumpy conditions. Swell direction, however, is fantastic: ENE accounts for 41.4%, E 23%, ESE 8.6%, and SE 4.2%, giving a total east-quadrant share of 77.2%. The average height is 1.0m (3.3ft) with a 6.9s period, meaning there is rideable, punchy energy almost everywhere - just rarely clean enough to enjoy. A west/northwest land breeze is the only key that unlocks the waves. Air temps hold at 27.3°C, rainfall is 5.37mm/day, and water temp is 28.6°C. Put your patience in the quiver and pick off the few glassy windows before the onshore trades kick back up.
