July: Peak Monsoon Mayhem
July represents the peak of the southwest monsoon with the highest average swell height of the year: 1.8m (5.9ft), average period 11.2s. The swell direction is dominated by SSE (40.8%) and S (43.3%), plus some SSW (11.6%). There is plenty of power underneath, but the wind is mostly from the SE/S/SW - SSE (16.2%), SE (16.2%), S (10.6%), SW (8.2%), WSW (7.2%) - and the ideal wind percentage falls to 23%. This is the classic 'too much of a good thing' month: the reefs are firing with overhead swell, but the cross/onshore wind tears into the faces. Precipitation increases to 5.78 mm/day, air temps are 27.8°C (25.3-30.1°C), and water temp is 29.4°C. Only the most sheltered spots or a rare synchronous break in the monsoon winds will produce quality; otherwise, be prepared for unruly power.
