Medewi - surf spot statistics

Medewi, Indonesia, is a consistent year-round surf destination with reliable ground swells dominating the swell mix, rarely dropping below 93% in any month. The best conditions for surfers generally occur from April to June when the swell size averages 1.3–1.5m, offering a solid balance of power and rideability. During this period, wind conditions are slightly more favorable compared to the rest of the year, with good wind days peaking at 40% in April before gradually decreasing. The swell quality remains excellent, with almost no wind swell interference and virtually no flat days. The largest swells arrive from July to September, averaging 1.6m, but stronger onshore winds become more prevalent, particularly from August onward, reducing ideal sessions. The least favorable months are December and January, when the swell drops to 1.2m, and wind conditions worsen, with bad winds exceeding 75% of the time. While Medewi is surfable throughout the year due to its high ground swell consistency, mid-year (April–June) provides the best compromise between wave size and manageable winds, making it the prime window for advanced surfers seeking quality right-hand point breaks with minimal interruptions.

In February, Medewi offers consistent surf conditions with an average swell height of 1.2m and a solid period of 13.2s, ensuring well-formed, powerful waves. The swell predominantly comes from the SSW (92% of waves are between 0.5–2.5m), providing clean, rideable lines that suit intermediate to advanced surfers. Smaller contributions from S and SW directions add variation. Wind conditions are less favorable, with only 31% of days offering ideal offshore or light winds (mostly ENE to SE). The majority of winds are W to WSW (often 10–30kph), creating cross-shore or onshore chop, especially in afternoons. Early mornings typically provide the cleanest sessions. Expect a mix of chest-high to overhead waves, with the best days delivering long, peeling rights when winds cooperate. A solid wetsuit-free month with warm water, but wind management is key for quality sessions.
