Conditions at Mekakoz in July
July: Peak Summer, Minimal Waves
July is the slowest month of the year for surf at Mekakoz. Average wave energy hits its seasonal floor - 3.3ft (1.0m) at a short-period 8.8s. The swell rose shows a staggering 60.5% of all wave energy arriving from the NW, with 24.6% from NNW and 9.4% from WNW. In other words, the beach is still exposed, but the ocean has no power behind it. The dominant wind regime is even more problematic. WNW (15.5%), NW (11.9%) and NNW (11.6%) combine to deliver onshore-flow more than a third of the time, flattening the small swell and adding texture. Offshore S/SW winds are rare - less than 7% of all observations. This is the classic summer pattern: the Azores High sitting strong and a thermal low over the Spanish Meseta funnels winds from the W/NW into the coast. The water is a warm 21.3°C and air temps average 20.2°C, so a spring suit is enough. But be prepared to sit on a longboard chasing tiny, soft shoulders if you want to paddle out at all.
