June: The Wrong-Direction Window
June is where the seasonal averages start to lie. The listed average swell height is 1.0m and the period is 6.8s, which sounds like it could be fun, but the direction is all wrong for Badoc Island Lefts. The southwest monsoon has taken over: SW contributes 46% of all swell energy, WSW 19% and SSW 11%, putting the majority of the waves from behind or west of the exposed sector. Only about 11% of the swell arrives from the favorable N/NNE/NE/NNW window. This is the beginning of the low surf season, where any sizeable swell in the data is effectively shadowed and the left becomes small, fat or flat.
The wind, ironically, is the cleanest of the year. S and SSW winds are offshore at this exposed north-facing break, and with ideal winds 49% of the time, you will often see a glassy ocean with no surf. Rain becomes a bigger factor as the monsoon arrives, with 8.87mm/day, while air temperatures ease to 27.4°C and water temperatures peak near 30.4°C. Patrol the coast for typhoon swell or rarer northern pulses; otherwise June is a rest month.
