Conditions at Barrio in July

July: Maximum Offshore Flow, Minimum Energy

July gives Barrio its best wind-to-wave trade-off of the year, with ideal offshore winds occurring 51% of the time. The ocean, however, refuses to cooperate with average swell heights of just 2.3ft (0.7m) and a period of 8.4s. ENE and E are still the primary swell directions, but the wave heights are concentrated below 3ft (1m), making the surf gentle and bumpy only when the breeze clocks around to W or NW. There is a slight increase in distant W and WSW swell from the monsoon and passing tropical waves, which can add consistency but rarely quality. For the surfer, this is a month for logging, cruising, and appreciating the glassy afternoon windows. If you are chasing serious waves, look elsewhere; if you simply cannot stay out of the water, July will not disappoint.
