Conditions at Avalon in June
June: Winter Pulse - Punchy SSE Groundswell and More Offshore Flow
June signals the heart of winter. The average wave period stays at 9.5s, ideal wind is 38%, and while the E/SE trade-swell block weakens, SSE and S swells dominate: SSE 21%, S 15%, SE 16% and ESE 11%. The increasing S/SSW component is a double-edged sword for a southeast-facing beach. SSE energy lines up beautifully, but pure S and SSW swells can be partially shadowed and need the sand to cooperate. The wind balance is encouraging too, with W, WNW, NW and NNW collectively well represented in the wind rose, meaning many days stay clean or semi-offshore. Air temp drops to 12.8°C, water temp falls to 19.1°C, and precipitation sits at 2.82 mm/day. Expect consistent 3-5ft (1-1.5m) surf plus occasional 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m) sets. When the right SSE groundswell lines up, Avalon can have some of the best-shaped, glassiest waves of the year.
