Conditions at Pacifico in August
August: The Season's Engine Starts to Hum
August brings a delightful combination of factors to Pacifico. Ideal wind time hits 31%, and the wind rose shows a massive westerly component: WSW (30.5%), W (10.5%), SW (13.6%), and WNW (3.0%) combine to dominate the wind regime, creating consistent offshore conditions. The swell also begins to respond. Average height remains modest at 0.7m, but the period lengthens to 9.0s, and the mix of directions shifts significantly. ENE drops to 25.9% and E to 19.3%, while western swell grows: WSW (8.4%), SW (6.4%), W (5.3%), and WNW (2.4%) combine for over 22% of the wave energy. This is the window where typhoon-induced west swells start to sneak in and align with offshore winds. Rain is lighter at 5.66 mm/day, air temps average 28.1°C, and water temp sits at a warm 29.3°C. August is a quality-over-quantity month-true offshore-stacked lines with fun little waves, but you need a touch of swell to light it up.
