June: Proper SW Swell Arrives - With Onshore Wind
June marks the real start of the southwest monsoon season, and the swell rose flips toward the favored direction. SW and WSW lobes account for 79 percent of the total wave energy, with the majority of waves in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) and 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range. Average height climbs to 2-3ft (0.8m), and the period recovers slightly to 6.6s.
But here is the catch: as the swell becomes more direct, the local wind comes from the same side of the compass. S and SSW winds combine for 51 percent of observations, and ideal offshore wind drops to 9 percent. Rain is now a major factor at 10.19mm per day, air temperature is 26.5°C, and water temperature is a warm 30.5°C.
Surf at Manangat in June is mostly stormy and cross-onshore. The direct south-west swell lines have power, but they arrive with wind chop, making for lumpy and harder-to-surf waves. Only the rare early-morning land breeze or a passing tropical cyclone can set up a genuinely clean session.
