Conditions at Playa Grande in June
June: The Summer Lull Arrives
June locks in the low season. Average surf size falls to 4ft (1.2m) and the period slumps to 7.3s, driven by a massive 78.6 percent of swell from straight E. This is classic trade-wind swell: short-period, inconsistent and poorly aligned for Playa Grande. There are still rideable waves in the 2-5ft (0.5-1.5m) range, but they lack power and rarely organize into good lines. The wind is actually more favorable, with ideal south flow 47 percent of the time and lighter ESE/SE trades, so the surface is often clean. The problem is not the conditions, it is the lack of north-east groundswell. Keep expectations low and look for the occasional ENE pulse or a stray tropical wave to provide a few fun sessions. Water temperature is 27.7°C and air 27.5°C.
