Conditions at Mona Lisa Point in July
July: Deep Southwest Monsoon
July is the heart of the Philippine southwest monsoon, and Mona Lisa Point wears the onshore badge. The swell direction remains excellent - WSW dominates at 57 per cent and W adds 16 per cent - but the wind direction is even more in the onshore corner: S, SSW and SW together make up 58 per cent of observations. Ideal wind is only 6 per cent. Average height creeps to 2ft (0.6m) and period to 6.9s, so there is a little more push in the water, but it is almost always chewed up. Heavy rain becomes a way of life with 19.2mm/day, although air temperatures stay high at 28.5°C (83.3°F) and water temperature is a warm 30.2°C (86.4°F). Look for a west-travelling typhoon swell to add size, but accept that the quality will be far from classic.
