Conditions at Mahe in July
July: Peak Monsoon, Peak Consistency
July is Mahe's most consistent month of the year. Average swell height reaches 3ft (0.9m), the period ticks up to 10.0s, and 88.9% of the waves arrive from due west-right in the sweet spot for this west-southwest-facing coast. About 17.5% of waves are in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, offering genuine head-high walls when the sandbars cooperate. The monsoon is fully mature and the westerly energy is locked in. The downsides are the onshore W/WSW wind (22% combined) and heavy tropical rain (20.04 mm/day). Still, WNW/NW/NNW flow dominates the wind rose, giving a cross-offshore groom much of the time. Ideal wind reaches 22%. Air temperature cools to 25.4°C and water temperature drops to 28.0°C. Go early, pick your bank and enjoy the most reliably surfable period of the year.
