Conditions at Bombies in July
July: Heavy Water, Stiff Trades
July cranks the size dial further -- 2.0m (6-7ft) on average with a very powerful 14.5s period -- but the southeast trades are now relentless. The wind rose shows SE at 49.0% and ESE at 19.6%, with steady 20-40kph winds on the majority of days. Ideal surfing wind collapses to just 11%. The swell itself is perfectly aimed: S (37.5%), SSW (44%), and SSE (6.3%) combine to pump energy straight into Bombies' south-facing reef. In the rare 11% window when a NW/N wind interrupts the trades, expect pumping, heavy walls and some serious pulsing sets. Otherwise the onshore wind messes up the upper lip. Air 27.2°C, water 28.7°C, and only 3.5mm/day of rain.
