Conditions at Playa Grande in June
June: Green-Season Gold
June offers one of the highest quality-to-size ratios of the year. The average swell is 1.2m (4ft) with an 8.1s period, and although 93.0% of the swell still arrives from the NE, the distribution is loaded with rideable waves: 24.3% at 0.5-1m, 40.6% at 1-1.5m, and 22.0% at 1.5-2m. The trade winds have largely retracted, with NE down to 15.8% and NNE to 9.5%, while ideal offshore wind conditions are present a full 30% of the time - the best mark of the year. Playa Grande still isn't seeing true N or NW groundswell, but the surface texture becomes much cleaner, making those 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) pulses genuinely fun. Expect classic tropical green-season conditions: air temps around 27.3C, water at 29.0C, and 8.49mm/day of rain, usually in afternoon showers.
