Conditions at Multedo in August
August: Peak Summer, Minimal Surf
August remains firmly in the low season, though a step up from July in wind consistency. Swell heights still average only 1.3ft (0.4m), with periods of 4.4s - the shortest of the entire year. SW (36.9%) and SSW (16.5%) maintain the favourable swell direction, yet the energy is mostly micro-swell inside the 0-1.5ft (0-0.5m) band. Offshore wind windows improve to 14%, thanks to a slight increase in N/NE activity, but the sea is still dominated by SSE/SE seabreeze and NNW breezes. Water temperature reaches the yearly maximum of 24.7°C, and air temps stay warm at 23.1°C. This is prime beach season, not prime surf season.
