June: Big Winter Swell, But a Battle for Clean Conditions
June is the start of the true big-wave season. Average swell is around 7.5ft (2.3m) with 12.4s periods, and the swell rose is now dominated by SSW (21.9%) and SW (26.2%), with the 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) size range filling up. This is powerful, energetic groundswell hitting the NNE-facing bight.
However, ideal wind drops to just 17%, the lowest of the year. WSW (15.8%) and SW (5.3%) provide offshore windows, but W (15.8%), NNW (12.3%), NW (9.1%) and WNW (8.4%) frequently rough up the surface. You will want to be selective and chase the S/SSW cold-front windows. Water temp remains usable at 18.2°C, while air temps average 16.4°C.
