Stimpy's seasonal overview
Stimpy’s in the Philippines offers varying surf conditions throughout the year, with distinct seasonal patterns influencing swell, wind, and overall surf quality. The best months for surfing at Stimpy’s are typically from August to October, when ground swell percentages peak (25% in August, 38% in September, and 42% in October) and wind conditions are most favorable, with good wind probabilities at 50%, 50%, and 35% respectively. During this period, the mean swell size ranges from 0.8m to 1.2m, providing consistent and manageable waves for intermediate to advanced surfers. The months of July and September also stand out due to their balanced conditions, though July has slightly smaller waves (0.8m). Outside this window, the surf tends to be less reliable. From December to April, the swell size increases (1.4m–2.3m), but the dominance of wind swell (79%–97%) and poor wind conditions (81%–97% bad winds) make the waves choppy and less ideal. May to June sees further deterioration, with swell size dropping below 1.0m and wind conditions improving only marginally. November marks a transition, with decent ground swell (27%) but worsening winds (86% bad). For surfers prioritizing clean, rideable waves with minimal wind disruption, late August through October is the prime window. If larger but messier waves are acceptable, the winter months (December-February) can still provide opportunities, though with less consistency. Avoid May-July if you’re looking for quality swells, as conditions are generally smaller and more wind-affected. Overall, Stimpy’s is most dependable during the late monsoon and early post-monsoon months, offering the best blend of swell energy and manageable winds.

Conditions at Stimpy's in August
In August, Stimpy’s offers surfable conditions with an average swell height of 0.8m and a decent period of 9.4s, providing clean, well-spaced waves. The most consistent swell directions are ENE (28.83% of waves in the 0.5-1m range) and NE (9.82% in the same range), with occasional SSE and SSE swells bringing slightly larger waves (4.55% in 1-1.5m). The majority of waves (nearly 80%) fall between 0.5-1.5m, making it suitable for intermediate surfers, though bigger days over 2m are rare. Wind conditions are favorable 50% of the time, with the dominant winds coming from the SE to SSE, often in the 10-30kph range, which can create cross-onshore or light offshore effects depending on the swell angle. Stronger winds (20-30kph) occasionally occur from the S and SSE, potentially causing chop, but lighter breezes prevail early in the day. Overall, August delivers consistent, manageable waves with good shape, though wind variability means timing sessions for optimal conditions is key.
