If the wind swings onshore NW, then everyone will think about heading south to the remote and fickle right of Bawa, a growling beast that shifts around nastily as it unfolds over a gnarled slab reef. Consistently picks up more swell than anywhere and transforms a solid SW swell into round, cavernous pits through the inside bowl section. Challenging, powerful wave for chargers and tube junkies and a regular escape from the Lagundri circus.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
