June: Long-Period Groundswell vs The Trade Winds
June marks the true start of the low-quality window, even though the swell is peaking. Average height reaches 1.0m (3.3ft) and the average period stretches to 13.8s, indicating powerful long-period groundswell from the deep southern Indian Ocean. The direction is overwhelmingly SSW at 57.4%, with SW at 21.8% and S at 10.3%; 20% of the waves now fall in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range. Yet ideal wind probability drops to 38%, as southeast winds blow 18.3% of the time, east-southeast 10.5%, and south-southeast another 10.0%. That combination produces unruly, wind-blown waves at the reef. Tropical heat continues, with air temps around 28.2°C and 29.9°C water; surfers willing to work for it can still find sheltered morning gems between squalls.
