Conditions at Fistral Beach in June
June: Small-Summer Grind
June marks the beginning of Fistral's summer flat spell in earnest. Average swell height sits at 1.1m (3.6ft), and the average period drops to 8.8s, which puts most energy in the short-period, punchy category rather than proper groundswell. The W and WNW swells are still the most common directions, but the energy behind them is usually generated by weaker low pressures and distant frontal systems. Wind becomes more of a problem: onshore westerly through NNW flow accounts for about 40% of the wind, with NNW the single most common at 13.6%. The ideal-surfing percentage falls to 18%, so clean waves are a premium. Water temperature rises to 14.6°C and air averages 14.5°C, so summer rubber or a spring suit is fine. It is worth chasing the handful of dawn windows with east winds and late arrivals of small W swell.
