Conditions at Tiger Stripes in June
June: Big South Swell, Windy Reef
June is a month of contrasts at Tiger Stripes. The average wave height jumps to 5.6ft (1.7m) with a powerful 10.9s period, as winter swell-generating lows in the southern Indian Ocean fire up. Directions are highly favorable on paper: SSE and S combine for 86.5% of the energy, and over two-thirds of all waves fall into the 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft) range. However, the southwest monsoon is entrenched, and ideal wind only occurs 25% of the time. SW/WSW/W winds turn the reef into a windblown, lumpy battleground for much of the month. Still, the long-period pulse is so strong that when a NW wind shift arrives, Tiger Stripes can offer thick, grinding waves. Air temps sit near 28°C, water at 29.7°C, and precipitation is 4.12mm/day.
