Agami Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

The honest truth is, we’re looking at a pretty quiet stretch. The swell windows are small, the periods are short, and the wind just won’t give us a clean break for most of the run. There’s a real gap of poor to marginal conditions through the first week and beyond. The only real glimmer of hope comes from a short window of glass, but the swell is tiny.

The first noting of anything surfable is on Monday, August 10th morning. The swell is a weak 3ft from the NW, but the period is a short 7 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-onshore. It’s marginal at best, and the combined energy is only 91 units – that’s weak. Not worth getting excited about.

Tuesday, August 11th morning offers the best of a very average bunch. At Agami, the wind goes completely glassy with a calm condition. The swell is tiny, 2ft out of the NW, with a short 7-second period. The energy is a weak 58. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary. Given the northwest direction, the exposed nature of the break means it’s a slight gamble. Still, it’s the only *clean* surf we’ll see for a while, so if you’re desperate, this is your window.

After that, we slip back into a long stretch of poor conditions. The wind goes onshore or cross-onshore, the swell stays small, and the energy drops off. There’s a brief period of glass on Thursday, August 20th morning, but the swell is a pathetic 1.0ft with a 5-second period and only 8 units of energy. It’s a flat calm, not a surf.

The next time we see marginal surf is on Sunday, August 23rd morning, with a 3ft NW swell and a 7-second period, but the wind is onshore. It’s a no-go.

Bottom line: If you absolutely have to get wet, Tuesday, August 11th morning at Agami is your only real shot at something clean, but keep your expectations on the floor. The rest of the 16 days is a write-off for decent surf. Too many onshore days and not enough swell to make up for it.

Rusty.
