July: Peak Summer Doldrums
July is typically the smallest month of the year. Average swell heights bottom out at 2ft (0.6m) and the period drops to 6.2s.

Offshore wind frequency hits its annual low at just 13 percent. Instead, ESE and SE winds dominate with 15.5 and 14.7 percent, pushing messy, onshore waves into the beach for much of the month. Air temperatures are hot, averaging 28.0°C, water temps reach 27.5°C, and precipitation remains high at 5.34 mm/day.
