Conditions at Castaways in June
June: Raw Power, Messy Surface
June brings some of the biggest average swell of the year to Castaways. The average height reaches 1.7m (5.5ft) with a period of 11.6s, and the south Indian Ocean appears to be firing on all cylinders. SSE (27%) and S (41%) waves are plentiful, with many sets pushing into the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) range. The catch? The southwest monsoon is firmly entrenched. Ideal winds are just 17%, and SW, WSW, and W winds blow over 40% of the time, leaving the surface chopped and difficult. The full force of the monsoon trough is parked over the region, with precipitation averaging 4.3 mm/day. Surfers willing to battle the wind might find occasionally rideable reefs, but consistency is poor.
