July: Winter's Full Pulsing Heart
July is nearly a twin of June and arguably the most consistent month of the year. The average height remains 10ft (3.1m), the period peaks at 12.5s, and ideal wind holds at 35%. The W/WNW offshore quadrant dominates the wind rose, with W alone at 23.7%, while bad easterly wind is scarce. Swell direction is heavily weighted to SSW/SW - together around 25.6% - but the long period turns that raw ocean energy into organized lines at the beach. This is the classic mid-winter pattern: low pressure systems tracking southeast of the continent, driving back-to-back groundswells. Water temperature drops to 16.7°C, making a 4/3 wetsuit with booties essential. If you can handle the cold, July is prime time.
