July: Mid-Winter Momentum
July is the apex of the austral winter at El Muro. Average swell sits at a serious 6ft (1.8m) with a 12.8-second period, and the SW (63.8%) + WSW (23.4%) combination keeps the west-facing sandbars under constant energy. The height distribution is beautifully spread: 19.7% in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, 27.0% in 5-7ft (1.5-2m), and 15.0% in 7-8ft (2-2.5m), plus a few XL sets above 8ft (2.5m). The ideal offshore wind window holds at 6%, tied for the year's best. Dawn patrols are the move-before the sun heats the coast and drags the sea breeze back onshore.
