Conditions at Right Point in July
July: Peak Summer Fade
July is the absolute bottom of the surf calendar for Right Point. Average swell is just 3.3ft (1.0m) and average period is 7.2s - the shortest of the year. The directional data is brutal: SSW (36.6%), S (34.7%) and SSE (15.9%) add up to an astonishing 87% of all wave energy. The E/ESE/SE window that lights up the point drops to just 8% (9% including ENE), meaning the wrong-kind-of-swell disease is almost total. What little surf appears tends to be wind-driven slop with little push or shape.
Wind is mostly from the SW (20.5%) and SSW (19.6%), with the offshore WSW-W-WNW-NW quadrant at 28%. The good news is that the sea is relatively calm and comfortable: air averages 16.1°C, water reaches 12.0°C, and precipitation is a low 2.65mm/day. For surfers, July is best spent chasing stray tropical swells or simply enjoying summer beach life - the point will not be doing much without a tropical system or a rogue decaying low.
