Conditions at Encuentro in June
June: The Annual Minimum
June is the low point of the surf calendar at Encuentro. With an average swell height of 1.1m (3-4ft) and an average period of just 7.2s, the surf is dominated by short-period, locally generated windswell. The direction data says it all: 70% of all swell comes from due east, which is well outside the optimal N-NNE-NE-ENE window. Only 26% reaches the beach from ENE, and true NE groundswell is almost gone. Wind is also heavily trade-dominated, with E, ESE and SE combining for nearly 90% of the observations. Even though the ideal wind score is 33%, the lack of period and quality direction leaves the lineup inconsistent and often lumpy. Water temp rises to 27.6°C, air temp averages 27.3°C, and rainfall is moderate at 1.61 mm/day. June is best for beginners, longboarders and anyone happy to log a few small, grovelly waves.
