Random Beach Break - surf spot statistics

Random Beach Break in the Philippines is a predominantly windswell-driven spot, with ground swells playing a minor role except during certain months. The best surfing conditions generally occur from October to March when swell consistency is higher, and wave heights are more favorable. October stands out as a transition month, offering a notable increase in ground swell (40%) while maintaining manageable wind conditions (44% good winds). November to February provides consistent swell energy, with December and January featuring the largest mean swell sizes (1.7m and 1.9m, respectively), though wind conditions are less favorable (over 85% bad winds). From April onward, swell size drops significantly, and the prevalence of windswell decreases, making summer months (May to September) less reliable for quality surf. However, late summer (August-September) sees a slight increase in ground swell contribution, though wave heights remain small (0.6m). Wind conditions improve from May to September, peaking in July-September with nearly 40-44% good offshore winds, but the trade-off is weaker and less consistent swell. For intermediate to advanced surfers, the ideal window is likely October to early December, balancing decent swell size, increasing ground swell influence, and relatively better wind conditions compared to the peak winter months.
