June: The Winter Wind Machine Turns On
June is the threshold of the Peruvian winter and Pulpos starts handling serious swell. Average wave height reaches around 6ft (1.8m) with a 13.2s period, and the SSW source still supplies 75.8 percent of all energy. The standout change is the S component: 11.6 percent of swell now comes out of the S, and a combined 62 percent of the SSW/S energy is in the 5-6ft (1.5-2m) and 6-8ft (2-2.5m) classes. This is powerful, raw South Pacific groundswell, exactly the kind that a southwest-facing beach can turn into memorable walls if the wind cooperates.
The wind rarely cooperates in June. Ideal conditions are 1 percent, while S plus SSW winds account for 76.7 percent of all observations, with SSW blowing 10-20kph 16.6 percent of the time. The persistent southerly flow adds constant lump to the ocean. Air temperature drops to 17.6°C, water temperature falls to 16.5°C, and precipitation stays near zero. Expect unsettled, bumpy conditions between occasional clean windows.
