Conditions at Rodiles in July
July: Summer Doldrums and Warm Water
July is the slowest month of the year at Rodiles in terms of wind consistency. The average swell is around 3ft (0.9m), the average period falls to 8.7 seconds-the lowest of the year-and offshore wind is ideal just 14% of the time. Swell direction remains from the NW/NNW quadrant, but it is mostly windswell and small background swell rather than proper groundswell. Wave heights concentrate between 2-5ft (0.5-1.5m), with very little above head-high. The daily pattern is dominated by ENE and NE winds, sometimes reinforced by NNW onshore flow, so surface chop is common. Early mornings are your best bet when a light S or SSW wind can be found. Water temperature climbs to 20.2°C; air averages 19.3°C, and rain is minimal at 1.09mm/day. This is longboard and summer-cruiser territory.
