Conditions at Red Tree Reef in July
July: Peak Summer Lull
July is the smallest month of the year, and it shows. The average swell height is 4ft (1.2m) with a 10.2s period, and the swell direction is dominated by SW (32.8%) and WSW (28.8%). Most of that energy is in the 2-5ft (0.5-1.5m) range, with only a small percentage reaching 5-6ft (1.5-2m). Red Tree Reef is a fun, mellow, longboard-friendly environment when conditions align, but the power and consequence are simply not there.
The wind situation is also at its worst on average-ideal conditions only 21% of the time. NW (20.7%) is the dominant direction, and that means steady onshore wind chops up the west-facing lineup for much of the day. Water temp climbs to 13.0°C (55°F), so summer rubber is workable. The reliable play in July is an early paddle before the NW breeze fills in, or a chase of the occasional SSE/SE offshore eddy.
