As a result, the winds blow from the sea onto the land in summer (the wet monsoon), since the air flows from higher to lower pressure. In winter, the air flows from the land out to the sea (the dry monsoon) since the land cools, forming higher pressure inland.

During summers, the temperature over sea is low.
This creates high pressure area over the sea.
The temperature over land is high creating low pressure area.
Since the winds blow from high pressure to low pressure areas, winds in summer season blow from the sea to land.
