July: The Cleanest Window of the Year
July may not offer bigger waves, but it offers the best odds of actually scoring clean, rideable surf at Playa Teta. The wind is ideal 70% of the time, easily the highest of the year, with NNW flow at 44% and NW at another 17%. The swell remains relentlessly SSW at 90.3%, giving the beach the direction it needs to show its shape. Heights are still small - 73.7% in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) range - but the 12.5s period puts some push behind each set. It is a month for longboards, grovelers and small-wave hybrids rather than barrels or big open faces. Water temperature sits at 29.0°C, air temps at 26.4°C, and the rainy season provides occasional breaks in the tropical sunshine between waves.
