June: Summer Windswell Slump
The summer doldrums take full control in June. Average heights slip to 4ft (1.2m) and periods tumble to 8.1s, signalling a predominantly windswell regime. The waverose is dominated by N (31%), NNE (36%) and NNW (29%), a product of the strengthening Canary trade winds. For the south-facing break, Playa Honda is now almost completely reliant on refracted northerly energy, which is inconsistent and sectiony. The trades ramp up hard, with NNE at 41% and N at 28%, and the ideal offshore wind percentage drops to 18%.

The few rideable days are usually in the early morning, before the trade winds blow out the surface - bring a grovel board and keep expectations in check.
