June: Peak Season Pump at Seal Point
June is the heart of the South African surf season. The average swell hits 10ft (3.1m) with a 12.4s period, and the combination of S, SSW, SW and WSW swells gives the coast size and rhythm. The direct E-ESE-SE-SSE window is smaller - only about 5 percent - but the long-period SW/SSW groundswell is so well developed that it becomes the main engine for the beach.
Wind is at its best. The offshore W (24.5%), WNW (8.4%), NW (5.8%) and NNW (11.1%) quadrants combine for nearly half of all observations, translating to 37 percent ideal surf wind - the highest of the year. Onshore E/ESE winds are almost non-existent at just 6 percent. Air temperatures are cool at 15.2°C and water drops to 17.2°C, so bring the 4/3. If you score a day when a long-period SSE swell lines up with this W/NW flow, Seal Point can be world class.
