Conditions at Sochi in July
July: Peak Summer Slop
July is the heart of Sochi's low season. The average surf height is 1-2ft (0.4m), the period is 4.2s, and ideal offshore wind is present just 7% of the time. The wave rose is dominated by W (33.1%) and WNW (30.6%), with NW at 10.1%; the favored S/SSW/SW/WSW sector drops to around 23% and nearly all of it is in the micro category. The wind regime is primarily WNW (16.3%), NW (10.9%), W (10.6%) and SSE (9.1%), a mix that usually puts the surface into a mushy, criss-cross pattern. If there is any surf, it is typically soft 1ft (0.3m) dribble, best suited to a foam board or a foil. Water temperature climbs to a very warm 24.6°C and air temperatures average 22.6°C, so summer is great for swimming. Surfers should save energy for autumn.
