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 June, Medewi offers consistent surf conditions with an average swell height of 1.5m and a solid period of 14.9s, indicating powerful, well-spaced waves ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers. The predominant swell direction is from the SSW, accounting for the majority of waves in the 1-2.5m range, with peak frequency between 1.5-2m (37.53%). This aligns well with the break, producing long, rippable walls. Wind conditions are favorable 33% of the time, typically light to moderate from the SE to ESE (10-20kph), which often cleans up the face. However, stronger SE winds (19.84% at 10-20kph) can occasionally create chop. Expect smaller, less consistent waves from other directions. Overall, June delivers reliable surf with good shape and occasional overhead sets, though wind management is key for optimal sessions.
