Conditions at Olende in June

June: Monsoon Onshore Flow Takes Over

June is the beginning of the long, blown-out season at Olende. The average swell height actually climbs to about 3ft (0.9m), and long-period SSW groundswell at 12.8s is plentiful, with around 23 percent of the waves in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range. But the offshore wind window collapses to a mere 1 percent. Southerly and southwesterly winds dominate about 85 percent of the time, many in the 10-20kph range and occasionally stronger, creating persistent onshore chop. Waves will break, but they will rarely be clean. The cooler Benguela influence drops water temperature to 25.7°C (78°F), air temperatures fall to 24.2°C (76°F), and precipitation nearly disappears-trading surf quality for dry, windy weather.
