Conditions at Playa de Los Caballos in July
July: Peak Summer, Low Energy
July is the heart of the summer lull. Average swell remains at 1.0m (3ft), and the average period is at its seasonal low of 8.9s. The wave distribution is very NW-heavy - 59% from the NW, 25% from the NNW, and 9% from the WNW - but the fetch is not producing big groundswell. Most surf is small, punchy and rideable, with plenty of grovel-worthy waves for a longboard or high-volume shortboard. Ideal wind comes in at 45%, and the typical summer flow is WNW 16%, ENE 13%, NW 11%, NNW 10%, with light mornings often glassy before the sea breeze builds. With air temperatures reaching 19.8°C and water at 20.7°C, the ocean is finally friendly. Rainfall is minimal at 1.14 mm/day. The best bet is early morning while any lingering NW pulse still has shape.
