Conditions at Marami Beach in May
May: Cleaner, Smaller, Groveling
May marks the real arrival of the southwest monsoon. The average swell height drops to 3ft (1.0m) and the period slips to 9.1 seconds, with ENE swell dominating at 71 percent and most of that in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) range. There are still occasional 3-5ft (1-1.5m) pulses from NE and ENE, but this is now a small-wave month. The wind story, however, flips dramatically: offshore S/SSW/SW/WSW conditions are present 45 percent of the time, and the strongest seasonal onshore winds have vanished from the statistics. The water warms to 29.4°C, air temps average 27.0°C (min 23.4°C, max 37.2°C), and precipitation remains manageable at 6.34mm per day. Expect glassy, peeling, but modest waves--perfect for high-performance groveling, longboarding, or teaching someone the lineup. Chasing low-tide sandbanks can turn knee-to-waist-high mush into waist-to-chest-high runners.
