July: Mid-Summer Swell with Variable Breezes
July keeps the southern hemi engine running. The average height remains 3ft (1m), the period is 13.0s, and the direction returns to a clean SSW-dominant pattern: 85.7 percent SSW and 14.3 percent SW. 66.6 percent of waves are in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) range, but 32.6 percent now reach 3-5ft (1-1.5m), giving surfers plenty of solid, rippable waves. Ideal wind improves slightly to 53 percent, with NNW and NNE the best offshore directions; however, the afternoon regime frequently features WSW and W breezes that add texture to the surface. With 8.73mm/day of rain and water temperatures at 28.7°C, July is a month for chasing clean dawn windows between tropical showers.
