Conditions at Mareta in July
July: Tiny Swell, Maximum Offshore Flow
July is the heart of the low season at Mareta. Average swell height stays at 4-5ft (1.4m) but period drops to just 8.2s, making the swell short-period and wind-dominated. The direction split is almost entirely between NNW (46.5%) and NW (43.9%), i.e., the least favorable for this south-facing spot. Ideal wind conditions fall to 20% - the lowest of the year - because while offshore NNW/NW flow is frequent, it often comes on strong, and the wave quality suffers from lack of energy. Air temps reach 21.3°C, water 18.3°C, and precipitation is essentially zero. It's a great time for a swim, but even the best summer south pulse is few and far between.
