Conditions at Tallows in June
June: Consistent Groundswell and Clean Westerlies
June is a reliable, high-quality month. The average wave period peaks at 9.6s, and ideal wind reaches 25% - the strongest signal of winter yet. The swell mix is dominated by SSE at 23.7%, SE at 17.9%, S at 13.0% and ESE at 14.5%, with pure E swell fading to just 10%. These are classic Tasman Sea and East Coast Low swells, produced by vigorous mid-latitude lows that also drag westerly winds over the coast. Most waves are 3-5ft (1-1.5m) or 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m), with a healthy 4.2% of SSE swell reaching 6-8ft (2-2.5m) and beyond.
Onshore E/ESE/SE/SSE winds drop to around 18% of the time, while offshore W/WNW/NW/NNW flow totals 25%, so Tallows sees far more groomed, lined-up surf. Water temp falls to 21.4°C, air to 18.7°C, and rain sits at 3.33mm/day. Throw on a spring suit and shade the dawn sessions - this is prime winter surf.
