July: Mid-Winter Consistency with a Trade Wind Uptick
July remains solid, with average height at 5.2ft (1.6m) and period at 9.4s. The ideal wind frequency is still high at 50%, but the NE wind starts to build again (NE 12.6%, NNE 11.5%) and ENE swell becomes more prominent (16.7%). Even so, the southern energy is still strong - S (15.8%) and SSE (13.5%) keep the open sandbars working, and the WSW-SW post-frontal flow continues to provide grooming. Expect occasional 6-8ft (1.8-2.4m) sets when a stronger storm pushes through. Water temp bottoms out near 16.2°C and air temps are cool, averaging 13.6°C. This is still a very good winter month, but be prepared for a mix of clean groundswell and wind-affected trade swell.
