Conditions at Minutes in June
June: Summer Lull, Early Light Winds
June officially enters the low season at Minutes. The average swell height falls to 1.1m (3.6ft), the period drops to 7.4s, and the dominant swell directions shift dramatically to S and SSW. Only about 20% of the wave energy arrives from the preferred ENE/E/ESE/SE window, so most days are small, soft and struggling to hold shape. East-facing breaks like this need a more easterly vector, and June just does not deliver it often enough.
The saving grace is wind. The ideal-wind percentage jumps to 57%, and the lighter summer pressure gradient means plenty of clean mornings. Water temperature warms to 8.5°C and air temps average 11.5°C, so the livability is much better. But unless a rogue cold front spawns an E/SE pulse, expect grovel-level conditions. Summer wetsuits and the longboard are often the right call.
