December: Max Size, Min Clean Time
December ties January for the biggest average swell of the year at 6.9ft (2.1m), with ENE at 48.0%, NE at 29.0% and NNE at 1.3%. The average period of 9.5s means these are heavy, powerful waves - the kind that can light up an exposed NNE-facing spot when conditions align. The swell direction is as good as it gets at Majestics; the problem is the surface.
Winter winds are overwhelmingly onshore: NE 33.2%, ENE 30.5%, NNE 12.9% and E 10.1%. Ideal S/SW wind is just 2% of the time, the lowest of any month. Most days will be big but lumpy, with frequent closeouts and a fighting current. The wet season kicks in too, with 18.57 mm/day of rain, air at 26.8°C and water at 27.9°C. For the rare offshore day after a monsoon surge, cancel everything - December can be a serious session at Majestics.
