Conditions at Playa de Meron in July
July: Peak Summer Slumber
July is the lowest-energy month of the year at Playa de Meron. The average swell height is only 1.0m (3ft) and the average period is 8.7s, the shortest average of any month. NW swell reaches its annual high share at 53.1 percent, with NNW at 28.9 percent, so the directionality is still overwhelmingly northwesterly, but the height distribution is noticeably weak. Most observations fall in the 0.5-1m (2-3ft) range, and anything over 1.5m (5ft) is rare.
Ideal offshore wind clocks in at just 9 percent, the lowest of the year. NE, ENE and thermal NNW winds dominate, creating bumpy, onshore-angled conditions that limit quality surf windows. When there is any clean energy at all, it is usually tiny and best handled with a longboard or a summer twin-fin. Water temperature climbs to 20.5°C, air temperature averages 19.9°C, and rainfall is minimal at 1.13 mm/day. This is the heart of the low season, but if you find a summer NW pulse with a rare early-morning S wind, it can still be fun.
