Conditions at Rabo de Peixe in June
June: First Summer Lull, Small NNW Lines
June marks the real transition into low season. Average swell height drops to 4.5ft (1.4m), period shrinks to 9.4 seconds, and the swell rose remains dominated by short-period NNW energy (22.8%) and NW (13.6%). There are still waves - the Azores rarely go completely flat - but they are smaller, softer and less organized. Wind statistics show ideal offshore flow 29 percent of the time, which sounds decent, but the onshore NNW and NNE directions are the strongest individual cells, and afternoon sea breezes routinely chop up the surface. Water temperature climbs to 19.5°C, air to 19.1°C, and daily precipitation drops to just over 1mm. For surfers, this is the month to dawn-patrol, grab the small-wave board and hunt the clean pockets under a still-warm sun.
