Conditions at Woolacombe in June
June: Summer Slumber
June marks the start of the real summer lull. Average swell height is 3.6ft (1.1m) and period drops to 8.3s, so Woolacombe is now heavily dependent on short-period wind swell and distant groundswell. The wave rose is overwhelmingly W at 41.5 percent and WSW at 26.0 percent, meaning the beach is still exposed, but much of this energy falls in the 0.5-1.5m (1.6-4.9ft) range. The period category of 6-9s is average and punchy, rideable but not powerful. Wind is less cooperative: the offshore ENE, E, ESE and SE share drops to 17.2 percent, ideal wind falls to 12 percent, and summer sea breezes plus regular W or NW winds add texture. Expect lumpy, soft-peeling surf most days, with occasional clean small waves when an easterly wind lines up the W swell. Water temperature reaches 14.8C, air averages 14.0C and precipitation is moderate at 2.53mm/day. It is a good month for longboards, beginners and foamies, not for charging.
