Conditions at Broken Head in July

July: Peak Westerlies and Midwinter Consistency

July matches June for ideal wind frequency at 70%, and the average period holds at 9.6s with surf around 5ft (1.6m). The swell rose is bottom-heavy: SSE is the single largest source at 23.5%, followed by SE, S and ESE. That gives Broken Head less of the straight E/ENE pulse it loves and more angled south swell. The good news is that west/southwest winds are persistent, blowing straight offshore; when the SE/SSE swell is large enough, the beach becomes a clean, winter-like sanctuary. Air temperature dips to 17.8°C, water to 20.2°C, and rainfall falls to just 1.74mm/day - dry, crisp and excellent for dawn sessions.
