Conditions at Inch Reef in June
June: The Summer Slowdown
June signals the true onset of summer conditions. Wave height averages only 3ft (0.9m) and period averages 9.2 seconds, so most of the energy is short-period and local. The swell chart is still dominated by WNW (26%), W (25%), WSW (16%) and NW (16%), but the height distribution is concentrated in the 1.6-3.3ft (0.5-1m) range. Expect fun, punchy lumps rather than the long grinding groundswell of winter.
Winds are a mixed story: ideal offshore flow remains at 33%, with NNW at nearly 15% the standout, but the summer sea breeze machine also starts to spin. SW (9%), WSW (9%) and W (8%) onshore winds build in the afternoon and chop up the reef. Air temperatures jump to 13.4°C, water temperature to 15.5°C, and with only around 3.2mm/day of rain, it is definitely summer. Grab a grovel board and look for the early morning tidal pushes.
