Conditions at Blacks Beach in June
June: Southern Swell and a Solid Onshore Flow
June is the start of the summer groove at Blacks Beach, and it's not a great groove for surf quality. The average swell height dips to 1.0m (3.3ft) but the period remains long at 13.8s. The direction distribution shifts almost entirely to the southwest, with SW (38.8 percent) and WSW (41.0 percent) ruling the waverose. The classic W window is down to just 12.4 percent. Meanwhile, wind conditions become highly unfavorable - ideal offshore flow occurs a mere 3 percent of the time. The dominant wind is W (30.0 percent) and WSW (27.8 percent), which blows right in the face of the west-facing beach. The result is small, lumpy, blown-out waves for most of the month. Water temps warm to 17.3°C (63°F), air temps average 18.1°C (64°F), and precipitation is almost nil at 0.15 mm/day. Look for the rare morning when an eddy creates a brief easterly drift; otherwise, June is for watching the ocean rather than surfing it.
