Conditions at Lop Camping in July
July: Peak Summer Flatness
July holds the mid-summer low at Lop Camping. Average swell height stays pinned at 0.8m (2.5ft) and the average period sinks to 7.7s - the shortest of the entire year. The swell directions are still dominated by the western side of the compass, with WSW at 29.1 percent and W at 19.1 percent, but the bulk of that energy is tiny: most waves fall in the 0.5-1m range and lack the period to organize on the sandbars. The wind data is equally discouraging for surf quality, with ideal offshore winds only 19 percent of the time. The most common single wind direction is NNW at 14.7 percent, which is onshore for a northwest-facing beach, and W/NW/NNW components together dominate the wind rose. Water temperature reaches 11.8C, average air temperature reaches 12.9C, and precipitation averages 3.22 mm/day. July is not a serious surf month; there are occasional small, fun, groveling waves of 2-3ft (0.6-1m) in the early morning before thermal winds build, but surface conditions and swell energy are generally marginal.
