Conditions at Agua d'Alto in July
July: Best Winds of the Year
July is the cleanest month at Agua d'Alto, but also the smallest: average swell drops to 1.2m (4ft) and the period to 9.0s. The 1-1.5m class dominates, with a strong supporting cast of 0.5-1m and 1.5-2m swells from the persistent NNW/NW Atlantic background. The ideal S-SSW-SW-WSW swell directions are rare, so don't come looking for winter power-come for smooth, playful lines.
What July lacks in size it makes up for in wind: ideal offshore N-to-ENE conditions blow a remarkable 60% of the time. NNE (11.3%), NE (10.5%) and NNW (14.3%) all contribute to a summer pattern of light-to-moderate offshore mornings and small, glassy surf. With water temperature at 21.9°C, air averaging 21.6°C and only 0.59 mm/day of rain, it is the warmest, most user-friendly month of the summer surf calendar.
