Conditions at Anchor Point in June
June: Summer Windswell Mode
June is the beginning of the summer low season at Anchor Point. Average swell height is down to 1.6m (5ft) and the average period falls to 8.4s - a signal that most of the wave energy is now short-period windswell rather than true groundswell. The direction data confirms this: 78.9% from NNW and a further 12.3% from NW. With such a narrow, northerly source, the southwest-facing point sees plenty of water movement but very little of the organized, powerful lines it needs to show off.
Ideal offshore wind is present 45% of the time, with NNW and NW wind dominating the daily pattern. The mornings can still be clean and the surf might be 3-5ft at times, but the lack of period keeps the wave quality mediocre. Air temperature jumps to 21.1°C, water temp warms to 17.9°C, and rainfall virtually disappears at 0.10 mm/day. Summer has officially arrived.
