July: Steady State in the Heart of the Rainy Season
July keeps the average swell height at a solid 1.1m (3.5-4ft) with the period easing slightly to 13.1s. Offshore wind consistency remains excellent at 78%, with WNW (17.6%) and W (13.5%) leading the way. The SSW swell still provides virtually all the energy (97.5%), and the height distribution is nearly identical to June: 51.9% in the 1-1.5m (3-5ft) range and 3.9% in the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) range. There is even a sliver of 2-2.5m swell recorded, which means the occasional bigger pulse does arrive. Air temperatures are mild for the tropics at 25.5°C, and water temperature holds at 28.9°C. With 8.52mm/day of rain, this is a wet, green month, but the surf consistency makes it a legitimate target for those chasing the best Pan Dulce has to offer.
