July: Prime Time for Abrolhos
July is the standout month. Average swell height reaches its annual peak at 2.7m (9ft), with an average period of 13.8s - the longest of the year. SW swell dominates at 23.8%, with SSW at 10.6% and WSW at 6.2%. This is powerful, long-period Southern Ocean groundswell hitting the island chain with real consistency, and the distribution of larger sets over 2.5m (8ft) grows compared with earlier months.
Wind is still not perfect, but it is the most favourable of the year. Ideal offshore wind peaks at 12% of the time, and the wind rose shows a much broader spread, including meaningful W, WSW and NW components.
