Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's cut straight to it. Lookin' at the 16-day window for Accra Beach - Rockley Beach, and I gotta be honest with you, it's a tough stretch. There's a run of poor conditions that stretches all the way from now through the middle of the month. The real issue is the wind – almost constant strong easterly cross-shore, which is going to chop up the face and make things messy. The water temp's sitting around 82°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won't need a hood.

We've only got a few faint glimmers of hope. Friday the 10th of July, that afternoon session shows the wind swinging to a cross-offshore direction, easing to a fresh breeze. We've got a 8ft east swell piling in, but the period is a short 8 seconds – that's windswell, so it'll be fat and lacking power. The combined energy is strong at 744, but it's a marginal call at best. The swell is actually a bit much for beginners over 5ft, but the cross-off wind will clean the surface up a bit. It's the best of a bad bunch, but I wouldn't be paddling out expecting perfection.

Honestly, for most of this period, with that strong cross-shore wind and the beach break setup, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There's just too much chop and not enough clean face to work with.

Signing off, Rusty.
