The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here with the lowdown on Malaking Gasang (Baler).
It's gonna be a bit of a slow start. Early on we got nothing worth paddling for — tiny, weak waves under a couple feet and poor conditions across the board. Don’t even bother waxing up. That quiet spell lasts through the first few days of the month.
Things start whispering to life on the afternoon of Monday, August 3rd. Wave energy gets up to moderate with a 0.5m (2ft) swell from the east, but a long 18-second period means the sets are gonna be spaced out. Glassy though, so your eyes will be peeled for what's coming.
Now, here’s where it gets real. Circle August 5th and 6th. The morning of Wednesday the 5th is your best bet. 1.4m (5ft) of clean, powerful east-northeast swell with a long 18-second period. That 1234 energy reading is serious. The wind is offshore and clean from the SSW. This is a reef break for the advanced crew, and at 5ft it’s got punch without being crazy. Water temp is running 87°F, a touch warmer than usual. Thursday the 6th keeps that quality rolling with another 1.4m (5ft) morning from the ENE and offshore wind from the WSW. Same power, same shape.
After that pulse, it fades fast. By Friday the 7th we’re back under a meter (3ft) and the energy drops off a cliff. It stays small and ordinary for the rest of the month, with just tiny, clean dribble but nothing to get excited about.
The standout moment? Without question, the mornings of August 5th and 6th. Get out there early for that east-northeast groundswell with the offshore breeze. That’s your window.
Rusty out.
