July: Consistent Power With a Morning Cheat Code

In July, Puerto Madero settles into a groove. Swell height averages 4.5ft (1.4m) on a 13.7s period, and the SSW direction controls 84.3% of the spectrum - the most concentrated month for the ideal swell direction - with S adding 8% and SW adding 7.3%. Most waves fall in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range at 60.1%, while 19.6% are 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) and a small but punchy amount reaches 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m). The wind situation is favorable for the tropics: ideal offshore conditions run 55%, and ESE/SE winds are the dominant afternoon filler, keeping the beach rideable longer than in spring. Air temperatures average 28.3°C with a range of 24.8-32.1°C, water temperature is warm at 30.7°C, and rain is heavy at 9.45 mm/day. Expect clean, long-period SSW lines in the morning, a bit of cross-breeze later, and the occasional hurricane-adjacent swell in the mix.
