June: Monsoon Grit and Heavy WSW Power
June is when the southwest monsoon takes over in earnest. The average swell height jumps to 2.3m (7-8ft) and the average period remains healthy at 10.3s, producing serious, heavy surf from the west-southwest. The swell rose tells the story: WSW contributes a massive 38.8%, W adds 18.8%, and SW another 8.0%, with a good portion of wave heights in the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) and 2-2.5m (6.5-8ft) ranges and occasional >2.5m (8ft+) bombs. But the monsoon wind is brutal for surf quality. The wind rose is dominated by WSW (24.4%), W (18.0%), SW (18.6%) and SSW (10.1%) - directions that are directly onshore at Shivas. Ideal surfing time plummets to just 3%. With 28.10 mm/day of rain, the lineup is typically a blown-out, lumpy brown mess. This is charging territory, but only for the brave, and rarely with any real form.
