Conditions at Orre in July

July: The Summer Lull

July is the lowest point of the year for surf size at Orre. Average swell height is just 2ft (0.7m), and the average period falls to 6.0s. Many days offer little more than ankle-to-knee-high slop. The swell direction roses still show W and NW, but these are short-period leftovers from weak Atlantic systems or local windswell. There is very little power in the water.

Ideal offshore wind is rare, at only 4% of the time. The wind field is dominated by NNW at 27.2% and NW at 15.9%, with SE/SSE flows also present. These cross-shore winds rarely let the beach line up cleanly. On the positive side, water temperature climbs to 15.4°C, air temperature averages 14.5°C, and precipitation is 3.29 mm/day. July at Orre is a summer holiday spot, not a surf destination.
