June: Peak Season Power
June sits at the peak of the annual swell cycle. Average height reaches 1.9m (6.2ft) with a 13.2s period, and the combination of SSW (75.8%), due S (11.6%) and SW (6.2%) creates a broad, powerful south-hemisphere swell window. Nearly 78% of the observations are in the 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft) range, and over a quarter of the total falls in the 2-2.5m (6.5-8ft) class. The S component adds some inconsistent but heavy lines, and the long periods ensure plenty of energy makes it around the headlands.
The wind, however, is challenging. S and SSW dominate with 38.1% and 38.6% respectively, while SW adds another 11.1%; ideal offshore wind is just 4%. The strong southerly flow is driven by the strengthened South Pacific High and can make the surface lumpy, especially through the afternoon. Water temperature drops to 16.5°C, air temp averages 17.6°C, and rainfall is zero. This is a month for bigger boards and patience - when the wind lays down at dawn, the waves can be world-class.
