Conditions at Log Cabins in July
July: Peak Flatness and Trade-Wind Overdrive
July is the lowest-quality month of the year at Log Cabins. Average swell is 1.7m (5.6ft) and period bottoms out at 7.8s. ENE swell dominates at 64.5%, with E adding 27.8% - over 92% of the wave energy comes from the east half of the compass. This is the wrong direction for the spot, and the low periods indicate locally generated windswell rather than true groundswell. Expect soft, sectioning 3-5ft (0.9-1.5m) waves unless a tropical wave or small hurricane spins up in the Atlantic.
Wind is locked into the ENE/E trade flow at 55.0% and 39.4% respectively. The E flow is offshore, but the ideal-wind percentage drops to 10% because the trades often blow 20-40kph, flattening the surf and adding chop. Water temp peaks around 25.9°C and air averages 25.7°C, with minimal rain at 1.04mm/day. July is the true summer doldrums - bring a longboard or a vacation to more exposed breaks.
