June: Peak Winter Swell and the Best Clean-Wind Odds of the Year
June is arguably the most promising month of the year at Playa Blanca. The average wave height reaches 6ft (1.8m) with a 12.9s period, and although the period is a touch shorter than summer, the winter storm track delivers a thicker and more consistent mix of SW and WSW groundswell. SW accounts for 62%, WSW for 26%, and more than 22% of waves fall in the 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) range, with occasional XL set waves pushing over 8ft (2.5m).
Wind-wise, June offers the highest ideal-wind percentage of the year at 11%. SSW winds are still dominant at 32%, with SW at 15%, but this is the month with the most frequent offshore and easterly interludes. The colder water at 13.1°C, cooler air at 14.1°C, and increased rain at 1.01mm/day are a fair trade-off for the best chance of scoring long-period, firing winter surf at a spot that is normally wind-affected.
