Conditions at Abrolhos Islands in June
June: Winter Hits Its Stride
June delivers the first real peak of the winter season. Average swell height climbs to 2.6m (8.5ft) with an average period of 13.5s. SW swell is the clear driver at 22.0%, followed by SSW at 13.0% and WSW at 7.5%; the southerly energy that dominated summer has now faded. There is also a small but noticeable increase in waves over 2.5m (8ft), adding some heavy, open-ocean power to the mix.
Wind patterns become more mixed and less brutally onshore. SE, ESE and E winds are still present, but W and WNW winds combine for a much better offshore potential. Ideal offshore wind is 10% of the time, and when it links up with a 13.5s SW groundswell, the reefs can get properly good. Water temperature drops to 22.9°C, air averages 20.2°C, and rainfall is the highest of the year at 2.53 mm/day as frontal systems push through.
