Conditions at Baleal in June
June: The Summer Lull Takes Hold
June marks the real beginning of Baleal's low season. Average swell height is 1.6m (5ft) and period shortens to 9.2s, so the waves become faster, punchier and less powerful. The swell roses are almost entirely locked into the north-northwest: NNW 38.9%, NW 30.5% and WNW 17.5%. Most of that energy is below 2m, and much of it is windswell rather than true groundswell. The NNE-facing sandbars can still produce fun walls, but only under the right wind.
The thermal low over Iberia begins to dominate, driving NNW winds 50.5% of the time. With N, NW and NNW combined, the onshore flow is relentless. Ideal surfing wind drops to 18%, one of the lowest readings of the year. Rain is scarce (0.47mm/day), air warms to 18.3°C and water reaches 17.7°C. This is the season for longboarders, loggers and small-wave grovelers; shortboarders will want to save their energy for autumn.
