Conditions at Falasarna in June
June: Flat Summer Lulls and Onshore Waist-High Chop
June is the heart of the summer flat spell. Average swell height remains at 0.7m (2.5ft), while the average period bottoms out at 5.0s - steep, locally generated windswell at best. The swell direction distribution is classic meltemi: a massive 42.7 percent of all wave energy comes from the WNW, yet 33.5 percent of that is under 1m, with only small percentages reaching thigh-to-waist high. Winds are also frustrating. NE winds dominate at 17.6 percent, but W and WSW winds combine to over 29 percent onshore, which creates messy, cross-shore/side-shore junk rather than peeling peaks. With only 9 percent ideal wind, clean waves are rare. The water warms to 22.8°C and air temps climb to 23.0°C; precipitation is virtually nonexistent (0.15mm/day). If you are chasing waves rather than a sun lounger, June will test your patience.
