Moshi Moshi - surf spot statistics

Best Surf Season (November - March)

The NE monsoon delivers a pulse of energy, but unfortunately from a largely unfavourable direction. Swell originates from the NE to ENE, which is partially blocked or produces weak, refracted waves at Moshi Moshi's NNW exposure. Average wave heights hover around 1.0-1.3m with periods of 9-10s, offering some rideable but often weak, lined-up sets. Offshore wind windows are limited as the predominant NE trades are onshore, but occasional S to SW shifts can clean things up, especially early mornings. This period delivers the most consistent swell, even if quality is often compromised.

Fair Surf Season (April - May)

The transition between monsoons brings a significant increase in offshore wind potential from the S to SW quadrant. Wind ideal percentages climb to 69-73%, meaning many days with light to moderate offshore breezes. Swell drops to 0.7-0.9m on average, with periods around 9s. The dominant ENE swell becomes smaller and weaker, but the cleaner conditions can make even small waves more fun. This is the go-to window for glassy, small-wave sessions.

Low Surf Season (June - October)

The SW monsoon dominates, with winds predominantly from the S to W, which are offshore for Moshi Moshi. However, swell energy plummets to an average of 0.5-0.7m. The fetch is limited and swell periods are short (8-10s). While the wind is often offshore, the complete lack of significant swell means mostly flat or micro conditions. Brief windows of opportunity occur when a typhoon or tropical storm in the South China Sea sends longer-period WNW to NW swell, but these events are rare and unpredictable. For the most part, it's a time for rest and travel.
