Conditions at Inches in July
July: Consistent Trades and a Slight Cleaning of the Act
July is the most consistent summer month, and ideal wind numbers climb back to 40 percent. The average wave height holds at around 3ft (0.9m) and the period at 6.0s, but the swell mix is finally split between E at 45.0 percent and ESE at 53.5 percent, with a small SE addition. The stronger east component means the swell lines arrive with a slightly better angle at the south-facing beach, and the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) class accounts for about 19 percent, not bad for summer. Wind is dominated by ENE at 45.6 percent and E at 42.9 percent, and the soft, wet S/SW flow is almost nonexistent. This is a good month for punchy, shoulder-high waves on the better sandbars, especially when the morning ENE trades groom the surface. Water temperature peaks toward 28.5°C, air averages 26.5°C, and showers are common but quick.
