Conditions at Auroville in June
June: Clean Monsoon Wind, Shadowed Swell
June marks the core southwest monsoon in the Bay of Bengal. Average swell height holds at 3.0ft (0.9m) and the period reaches 7.6s, but swell direction is almost exclusively from the SSE (32.4%) and S (57.1%). This is poor directional exposure for Auroville; the preferred ENE/E/ESE/SE energy is essentially absent from the data.
Wind, however, is as good as it gets all year. Ideal surfing wind is 62%, with SW and WSW winds combining for 44% of the distribution. These winds blow from land to sea and groom the surface. The problem is that the waves have to wrap or refract around the south-facing shadow to reach the beach, and they arrive inconsistent and relatively weak. Water temperature is 29.1°C, air temperature 30.1°C, and rain is 2.14mm/day. Summer surf at Auroville is clean but marginal, with flat spells broken by south-swell pulses.
