Conditions at Badoc Island Lefts in July
July: Habagat Grip and the Summer Lull
July is the heart of the southwest monsoon, and the swell window at Badoc Island Lefts remains firmly closed. The wave rose is dominated by SW at 45%, WSW at 18.5% and SSW at 12%, with W adding another 4%: that is nearly 80% of all energy coming from directions this NNE-facing left simply does not see. Favorable N/NNE/NE/NNW swell drops to only about 9%. Although the average height sits at 1.1m and the period ticks up to 7.0s, the usable wave size is a fraction of that. When northern swell sneaks through, it is usually tiny and overshadowed by leftover SW monsoon wind chop.
Winds are often offshore from S and SSW, with ideal surf wind reaching 48%, keeping the surface calm and inviting. But the lack of swell ruins the equation. This is also one of the wettest months: precipitation averages 13.82mm/day, air temp is 26.8°C and water temp remains tropical at 30.3°C. Unless a typhoon injects anomalous north energy, July is best used for exploring other exposures or resting the quiver.
