The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here, breaking it down in feet and miles per hour.
We’re looking at a quiet stretch. The surf is tiny for days on end, so don’t get your hopes up until the second week. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t come until then, and even that’s a scratch.
The first surfable day is Thursday, July 30th, at Agate and Pearl Street. Through the morning, we’ve got a 4ft swell from the south with a 14-second period, a nice long groundswell. The combined energy is moderate at 732. Winds are light and offshore from the WSW at 10 km/h, so it’ll be glassy. This is a reef break, so that long period will give you clean, lined-up waves. It’s rated intermediate, and crowds are possible. Water temp is about average for the time of year.
The afternoon drops to 3ft from the SSW with a 15-second period, energy down to 610. Still clean with light offshore wind, but the swell is fading. Friday morning, July 31st, is similar with a 4ft south swell (14 seconds, 500 energy) and light offshore WSW wind. After that, things go flat. From Friday afternoon all the way through Saturday, August 9th, it’s mostly poor or marginal surf with tiny waves under 3ft and cross or cross-onshore winds. Not worth paddling out.
The next little bump shows up Sunday, August 10th, in the morning. A 3ft SSW swell with a 15-second period, 287 combined energy. Winds are light cross-onshore, so it’s not perfect, but it’s something. The best of the whole outlook actually comes a bit later on Tuesday, August 12th, in the afternoon. That’s still a small 2ft from the SSW, but with an 18-second period (very long period groundswell) and 368 energy. Winds are light cross-onshore, so there will be a little bump, but the long period should give you clean lines off the reef. It’s still marginal.
Honestly, nothing here is a true standout. The best on offer is the morning of Thursday, July 30th, with that 4ft south swell and clean offshore wind. That’s the pick. The rest is a long wait for knee-high, marginal waves.
Rusty, signing off.
