Conditions at Martinhal in June
June: Strong Northerlies and Small Waves
June is low season in size, with average swell height down to around 4.5ft (1.4m) and period only 9.0s. The swell rose is dominated by NW at 46.5% and NNW at 29.5%, but most of that is short-period, wind-driven energy. The wind story is a force to reckon with: NNW blows 53.0% of the time and NW adds 15.5%, with a huge spike in 20-40kph winds. That direction is technically offshore for the southeast-facing beach, but the strength can flatten the surface and make the waves difficult to ride. When the northerly eases in the morning, the 1-1.5m (3-5ft) waves can be playful. High pressure rules, precipitation is almost non-existent at 0.25mm/day, air temps average 19.9°C, and the water temp rises to 18.1°C.
