Conditions at Jelly's Point in July
July: Flat and Frustrating
July remains in the doldrums for this north-facing spot. Average swell height bottoms out at around 1.6ft (0.5m) with a period of 9.0s. The swell distribution is spread between E (41%), ENE (26%) and ESE (11%), with very little north in the water. A full split of the wave heights falls between sub-1.5ft (0.5m) and 2-3ft (0.5-1m), which at best means soft, whitewashy peaks. Wind is more southerly than any other time of year - S (16%), SSE (14%) and SSW (10%) - so it's often clean and offshore/cross-offshore. The combination of clean wind and close-to-zero swell is perfect for swimming, not surfing. A tropical storm passing through the region is about the only ticket to waves in July. Water temperature remains 29.4°C, with rainfall around 7.0mm/day.
