Muli - surf spot statistics

Muli in the Maldives offers consistent surf conditions year-round, with the best months for surfers being February through April. During this period, ground swell dominates (69-78%), providing clean and well-organized waves, while wind conditions are generally favorable (51-60% good winds). Swell size averages 1.2-1.4m, ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for quality rides without excessive power. March stands out as the peak month, combining the highest ground swell percentage (77%) and relatively good wind conditions (60%). From May onward, conditions deteriorate as wind quality drops significantly (below 30% good winds from May-October), leading to choppier surf, despite larger swells (peaking at 2.0m in July). The late season (November-December) sees a slight improvement in wind conditions, but ground swell remains modest (around 55%). For surfers prioritizing clean waves and manageable size, the early-year window is optimal, whereas those chasing bigger but less pristine surf may tolerate the less favorable winds of June-August. Avoid May-October if consistent offshores are a priority.

November at Muli offers solid surf conditions, with an average swell height of 1.5m and a favorable 11.3s period, ensuring consistent, well-formed waves. The predominant swell directions are SSE, S, and SSW, delivering the best energy with 1-2.5m waves most frequently. SSW swells dominate, accounting for over 22% of 1-1.5m waves and 12.5% of 1.5-2m waves, often combining with offshore or light cross-shore winds. Wind conditions are rideable 37% of the time, with lighter easterly/southeasterly winds (10-20kph) during clean sessions. However, stronger WSW-W winds (20-40kph) occur around 30% of the month, potentially creating choppy conditions. Expect a mix of waist-high to overhead waves, with the best days when SSW swells align with lighter winds for clean, powerful walls. While not as consistent as peak season, November still provides plenty of quality surf for intermediate to advanced surfers.
