June: Long Period, Flatlines
June's numbers are a study in frustration: the average period is a solid 14.5s, but the average height is only 0.3m (1ft). Swell direction is locked in from the SSW at 73.1%, with SW at 16.4% and S at 9.0%. The preferred W/WNW/NW/WSW swell windows account for just 1.2% of the observations. Even the 0.5-1m category is nearly absent, with only 0.4% from the SSW and traces elsewhere.
The wind rose becomes more balanced: S (15.1%), SSW (12.9%), SSE (11.1%), and SE (8.2%) are prominent, while favourable offshore sectors total 24.0%. Onshore westerly winds are on the rise at 10.3%, and ideal surf wind remains 0%. Rain is heavy (5.36 mm/day), with air temps around 26.8°C and water temp at 29.3°C. In short: long-period energy that never arrives with the size to leave you with very little to surf.
