Conditions at Picnic Tables in June
June: Summer Doldrums
June is the heart of the low season. Average swell height bottoms out at 1.5ft (0.5m) and the period slides to 7.6s, the shortest of the year. Directionally, E and ESE swells dominate with 35.5 and 30.6 percent, plus 15.8 percent from ENE and 4.7 percent from NE. But the energy is overwhelmingly small: a huge share of the E and ESE swells falls in the 0-0.5m category, meaning knee-to-waist high mush at best.
Winds are no help. ESE is the most common at 13.3 percent, followed by SE at 11.7 and E at 10.8. Onshore or side-onshore flow from the east dominates nearly every day, and favorable offshore W/SW winds sink to just 7 percent of the time. Your only real hope for surf in June is a developing tropical system or a transient easterly wave. Otherwise, expect weak, crumbly windswell and plenty of flat days. Water temp is a bath-like 27.5°C, air temps average 27.2°C, and rainfall is heavy at 6.63 mm/day.
