Conditions at Playa Valor in June

June: Long Period But Low Energy

June offers more of the wet-season pattern. Average wave period is again 14.5s, and the wave rose becomes even more SSW-dominant, with SSW swell at 73.1% and SW swell at 16.4%. That is about as good as it gets for direction at Playa Valor; the west-facing swell window is wide open. Yet the average wave height remains 1ft (0.3m), and no meaningful class above 1.5ft (0.5m) appears in the distribution. Onshore winds from the southwest quadrant account for 35.7% of the wind, while offshore directions fall to just 9.1%. With 5.36mm/day of rainfall and 29.3°C water, the beach is warm, green and often messy. Ideal surf windows remain at 0%. If you come in June, bring a log and check the early morning tide - the windows are real but short and unreliable.
