Conditions at The Pass in July
July: Mid-Winter Full Send
July holds the statistical crown for winter reliability. The average period stays locked at 9.6s, heights hang at 5.2ft (1.6m), and a S/SE swell direction mix (SSE 23.5%, SE 16.7%, S 14.8%) is backed by a 41.2% frequency of offshore SSE-SW wind. Annual rainfall hits its minimum at 1.74mm/day, meaning long runs of crisp bluebird days under persistent high pressure.
Yet this is the month to watch the synoptic chart for the first signs of spring. NNW winds occupy 11.9% of the wind record, and when they combine with a NE swell event, The Pass turns onshore and messy. Water temp drops to 20.2°C (68°F), with early-morning airs near 10°C (50°F) delivering those classic low-slung winter days. For dedicated all-round surfing, few months beat July.
