Seasons & best time to go
The prime time when the legendary “Majestic” wave lives up to its name, delivering powerful, hollow right-hand barrels and consistent swells for advanced surfers and pros.
Driven by the Northeast Monsoon, this period brings massive, raw ocean swells and cooler air, ideal for experienced surfers who love heavy open-ocean power, alongside crisp glassy mornings.
Winds die down and the ocean calms, creating smaller, more manageable waves and crystal-clear waters that make it the best time for beginners and longboarders.
What to bring
