Conditions at Cidreira in June
June: Winter's Prime Time
June is the peak of the Cidreira surf year for overall quality. The ideal wind percentage reaches its annual maximum of 34%, and the offshore wind directions are prominent: W (12.2%), WSW (9.2%), SW (7.3%) and WNW (7.0%) combine for a much better wind climate than summer. The average swell height is still solid at 5.6ft (1.7m), with an average period of 9.6s, and the swell direction mix is excellent - S (17.1%), ENE (15.1%), SSE (12.5%), E (10.8%), ESE (10.0%) and SE (9.9%). What this means at the beach is waves that have both power and shape, especially when the E/ENE component lines up with the beach's favourable exposure. Air temps average 16.3°C and water temp drops to 17.1°C, with rainfall around 4.0mm/day. June isn't necessarily the biggest month, but it is the most consistent combination of size, period and clean offshore flow that Cidreira sees all year.
