Conditions at Sidi Ifni in June
June: Summer Slump Sets In
June marks the start of the low season at Sidi Ifni. The average swell drops to around 5ft (1.6m), the period shortens to 8.6s, and the wave direction becomes almost exclusively NNW at 84%. Although the dominant swell direction is still favourable, the longer-period Atlantic groundswell has become a distant memory. Instead, the surf is shorter-period and wind-driven, with a lot of waves in the 1-2m range.
The wind story is the bigger issue. Ideal offshore flow occurs just 3% of the time, while NNW wind punches in at 60% and N wind at another 14%. That makes most days onshore and cross-shore, turning the northwest swell into bumpy, drifty surf. There are still sessionable, punchy waves for the local crew, but on a quality scale this is a real step down from the winter months. Air temperatures climb to 21.3°C, water warms to 18.1°C, and precipitation is almost negligible at 0.12mm/day.
