August: Sustained South Swell
August keeps the summer machine rolling. Average height is 1.6m (5.2ft), period 13.3s, and clean wind 55 percent. SSW remains the leader at 57.6 percent, with S at 32.4 percent, meaning the swell direction is exceptionally consistent. Many days produce head-high-plus sets rolling into the beach, and the long period keeps the energy organized. The wind rose is a bit more mixed than July, with ESE/E winds around 16 percent, but the N/NNW flow still dominates on clean days. Rain is still heavy (6.03 mm/day) and water temperature peaks at 30.7C. August is a no-brainer for surfers looking for warm water and steady SSW/S groundswell.
