One Palm Point - surf spot statistics

One Palm Point in Indonesia is a consistent year-round surf spot with a strong dominance of ground swell, which makes up over 85% of the swell conditions in most months. The best months for surfing here are typically April, May, and June, when you’ll find a near-perfect combination of high ground swell consistency (98-99%) and relatively favorable wind conditions (good winds 41-53%). During these months, the mean swell size ranges from 1.4m to 1.8m, with May and June offering slightly larger waves. April stands out as the most balanced month, with the highest percentage of good wind conditions (53%) and minimal wind swell interference. May follows closely, maintaining excellent swell consistency while still providing decent wind conditions. June sees a slight drop in favorable winds but delivers the largest average swell size (1.8m) before the wind deteriorates further in July. The worst months for wind conditions are August and September, where good winds drop below 11%, despite solid ground swell persistence. December through March can be hit or miss due to higher bad wind probabilities, though ground swell remains reliable. For surfers prioritizing clean conditions and manageable swell sizes, April to June is the prime window at One Palm Point, while those comfortable with stronger winds can still find waves outside this period thanks to the spot’s exceptional consistency.
