Conditions at Tuason Point in October

October: Power and Glass Combine

October is the other highlight. Swell averages 1.1m (3.6ft) - solidly in the fun range - and the period peaks at 10.2s, making it the most powerful average wave of the year. NE (49.1%) and NNE (20.0%) swells dominate, but the long periods ensure serious push, and typhoon-generated ENE/NNE swells still pepper the data.

The offshore wind percentage remains high at 37%. With NNW (9.8%), NW (7.1%), WNW (9.0%) and W (11.1%) winds all well represented, Tuason Point catches many perfect offshore days. This is the time to plan trips around the transition: the Northeast Monsoon is not yet entrenched, and the seas are frequently glassy. Expect powerful, long-period 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) sets with warm 29.3°C water. Precipitation begins to rise again at 8.3 mm/day, but the quality is worth it.
