June: Summer Mode On - Long Groundswell and Better Offshore Flow
June is where Las Gatas turns the corner. The average swell height reaches 1.5m (4.9ft) with a 13.8s period, and the wave rose remains planted in the SSW: 76.9% from SSW, 13.5% from S, 7.5% from SW and 1.0% from SSE. More than 25% of the month is in the 1.5-2m (4.9-6.6ft) class, and a few 2-2.5m (6.6-8.2ft) sets show up, mostly from the SSE/S. This is proper, powerful, long-period surf - the kind that wraps around the point and holds its shape on the reef.
The wind situation improves dramatically. Ideal offshore wind now occurs 39% of the time. The ESE (8.3%), SE (12.0%) and SSE (7.7%) sectors become the dominant morning breezes, with NW/NNW winds backing off from their winter dominance. W and WNW winds are still present at 11.5% and 11.3%, but they are less frequent and mostly lighter. Water temperature bumps up to 30.0°C, air temperature averages 26.2°C, and rainfall increases sharply to 6.03mm/day as the wet season begins. June offers the best balance of size, period, and clean surface that Las Gatas has seen since last fall.
