January: Peak Amihan Swell With a Cross-Shore Catch
The new year delivers the heart of the northeast monsoon. Average swell height sits at 1.0m with a period of 7.7s, but look closer and you see a healthy spread - N and NNE swells account for 77% of the energy, with a further 18% from the NNW. The most common wave heights are in the 0.5-1.5m range, meaning clean 2-5ft (0.6-1.5m) surf on the sandbars. The catch is the wind: ENE, NE and NNE directions total over 60% of observations, and the ideal offshore S-SSW flow only blows 17% of the time. When those two windows line up - N/NW swell meeting a light SSW breeze - Puro Pinget can offer rippable, hollow wedges. Water temp is a warm 25.4°C, air temps average 23.7°C, and precipitation is a low 0.81mm/day. Bring a few boards and pick your moments.
