Conditions at Canet Plage in July

July: Peak Summer, Minimum Swell

July is quintessential summer flatness at Canet Plage. Average swell height is a tiny 0.7m (2.3ft) and the period collapses to 4.2 seconds. The swell roses show that while NNW (24.6%) and NW (21.2%) remain the nominal source directions, the bulk of that energy is in the 0-0.5m and 0.5-1m classes - more ripples than waves. The good news is the wind is still mostly offshore (NW wind 38.5%, ideal wind 19%), so the occasional knee-to-thigh-high set can be clean and glassy. Water temp climbs to 22.3°C (72.1°F), making summer wetsuits or just boardshorts the norm. If you're a dedicated surfer, this is the time for foam boards and the art of making everything feel fun; for everyone else, it's time for sunbathing.
