Conditions at Alwars in June
June: Monsoon Fury - Clean Winds, Poor Direction
June is peak southwest monsoon. Swell energy is the most abundant of the year on paper - average height 3.6ft (1.1m) and period 10.6s - but direction is all wrong. SSW generates 66% of all waves and S another 31%; favorable NE/ENE/E directions produce zero. If you are looking for well-ordered, powerful groundswell hitting an east-northeast-facing beach, June is a write-off.
The wind data show why this month is so deceptive: WSW and SW together make up 96% of the wind, with WSW alone at 74%, and these directions are offshore at Alwars. Only 9% of the time falls into the ideal surf window, mainly because speeds are often 20-40kph and can be gusty. Combined with heavy rain (4.58 mm/day), air temps around 28.2°C, and water at 27.5°C, June delivers blown-out rain events more often than surf sessions.
