Conditions at Palmeira in June
June: Small, Short-Period Lines
June transitions into the low season. The average swell height drops to 1.6m (5ft), the period shortens to 7.9s, and the waverose is almost entirely NNE at 84%. Most waves fall into the 1-2m (3-6ft) range, but the short period keeps them softer and more disorganized. Winds are still predominantly NNE (63%) and NE (23%), though lighter morning wind and a slight increase in offshore flow give ideal conditions 7% of the time. It's not the month to plan a trip around, but on a light-wind day with a fresh NNE pulse, there are still banks that offer a few fun, rippable waves. Water temperature is 23.4°C, air 22.9°C.
