Conditions at Vale Figueiras in June
June: The Summer Doldrums
June marks the true low season at Vale Figueiras. Average surf height flattens to 1.4m (4-5ft), and the average period drops to 9.0s, so most days offer little more than soft, short-period lines. The wave rose is now almost entirely made up of NW (46.5%) and NNW (29.5%) swell, with WNW (14.1%) as a secondary source. While the directions are good on paper, the lack of size and punch keeps the spot from living up to its cold-season reputation. Wind conditions are poor for clean surfing: only 11% is considered ideal, and the infamous summer NNW wind blows at 43.5%, with NW at 18.9%. This creates a frustrating combo of lumpy, windblown conditions and smaller surf. Air temps average a pleasant 19.9°C, water temp reaches 18.0°C, and rain is scarce at 0.25 mm/day. Grab a log and find a sheltered corner on the Algarve instead.
