Conditions at Puro Pinget in August
August: Bigger but Still Backwards
August brings the largest swell of the southwest monsoon season - average height 1.1m and period 7.2s. But it's almost all SW (49%) and WSW (30%) swell, with only 6% from N/NNW. The volume is there, but the orientation is completely wrong for the NNW-facing beach, leaving it cursed with sectiony, closing-out junk on good days and flatness on bad ones. Wind is still favorable from the S/SSW quadrant (ideal 27%), and SSW alone makes up 37% of the wind rose. The warmer than 30°C water (29.8°C) and heavy rainfall (18.17mm/day) sum up the muggy monsoon vibe. Rare typhoon-induced NW pulses may show in the tail end of the month, but the odds are still heavily stacked against quality surf.
