Conditions at Los Frailes in July
July: High-Consistency, Low-Percentage Winds
High summer keeps the swell tap turned on but turns the wind odds against you. The S and SSE quadrants combine for an astonishing 99 percent of all wave energy, and the average period stays at 12.5s, so there is plenty of ocean going on. Yet ideal wind time sits at just 27 percent, with ESE/SE/SSE/S breezes blowing across the lineup most days. The average height still sits in the 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m) range, and you can find more 3-5ft (1-1.5m) waves than in June, plus the occasional bigger SSE set. Water temps climb to 28.5°C, air temps to 29.2°C, and precipitation ticks up to 0.74 mm/day as monsoon moisture arrives. If you are willing to work for it, early morning before the seabreeze can still produce fun, rippable summer surf.
