Conditions at Cabo Blanco in July
July: Mid-Winter Power and Tricky Breezes
July is the core of the austral winter. Average swell height holds at 6.2ft (1.9m) with a 13.8s period, and SSW swell accounts for 88% of the spectrum; S adds 5% and SW only 2%. Within the height distribution, 52% of the waves are in the 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) range and 25% in the 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) class, so Cabo Blanco is rarely flat. The problem is wind: ideal conditions drop to 22%, as S and SSW winds combine for 80% of the readings, with much of that blowing 20-30kph and 7% of the SSW wind reaching 30-40kph. It is a blustery, bumpy month, though early mornings and protected corners of the point still offer occasional gems. Sea temperature falls to 20.1°C, air averages 21.2°C, and precipitation is negligible at 0.04 mm/day.
