July: Winter Consistency, Smaller Packages
July keeps the long-period pulse at 8.9s, but the average swell drops to 3ft (0.9m). SE (23.2%) and ESE (20.8%) now lead the direction mix, with E (17.2%) and SSE (14.0%) close behind. This is mostly trade-wind swell, but the longer period means the waves that do arrive have shape and push.
Wind quality remains decent, with S (15.2%), SSW (14.5%), SW (8.1%) and SSE (8.7%) holding ideal wind at 54%. The main issue is size - many days hover in the 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m) range, with 4ft (1.2m) sets less frequent. Water temp drops to 20.6°C, air is 11.0-25.3°C, and rainfall is only 1.63mm/day, making it the dry season.
