Conditions at Ponta do Pargo in June
June: Summer Lull, Clean North Swell
June brings the first extended flat(ish) spell of the year. Average swell only manages 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m) with an average period of 9.3s. The swell rose tells the story: NNW is dominant at 38.3%, followed by NNE at 20.4% and N at 16.9%, while true W/WNW groundswell almost disappears. Those are mostly short-to-mid-period north Atlantic windswell pulses rather than the long-period groundswell that Ponta do Pargo prefers. Still, the surface conditions are often clean: NNE winds blow at 37.8%, NE at 16.5%, and ideal offshore/easterly wind windows run 34%, which keeps the spot surfable and uncrowded.
Air temps climb to 20.0°C (min 17.0°C, max 23.8°C), rain is almost non-existent at 0.22 mm/day, and water temps warm to 20.7°C. A spring suit is fine, and if a late-season storm or tropical wave wanders past, you can find fun 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) peaks on the west coast.
