Conditions at Kuta Beach in July
July: Peak Swell, Stronger Trades
July is the size peak of the Kuta year. The average swell height reaches 7-8ft (2.2m), the average period maxes out at 14.4s, and the storm track is pumping consistently from the Southern Ocean. S and SSW swells are almost evenly weighted (33.3% and 35.2%, respectively), with S and SSW together putting around 39.5% of all waves into the 6-8ft (2-2.5m) class. The wind, however, becomes more aggressive. ESE and SE combine for close to 90% of the wind field, but a good chunk blows in the 20-30kph range. That drops ideal wind to 46% and can put a bump on the surface. Still, in the early hours when the ESE trades are lighter, Kuta serves up heavy, grinding, overhead walls. Water temp is 27.1°C and rain is almost absent at 1.09mm/day.
