The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight up – this is about as flat a run as you’re gonna see for Agios Ioannis right now. That point break is a tease, but for the next week and a half, there just isn’t any worthwhile surf on the cards. We’re looking at a solid gap from now, Friday the 28th of August, all the way through to Wednesday the 9th of September with nothing to get excited about. The swell energy is pitiful, barely cracking double digits most days – we’re talking combined energy values between 1 and 62 (weak). Winds are mostly cross-onshore or light and variable, which doesn’t help the tiny, choppy bump that’s out there. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this is a proper dry spell. Kite surfers might get a look in with the cross-shore breezes, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a write-off.
Now, I’ll be honest – the only glimmer in this whole 16-day window shows up on Wednesday the 9th of September. Agios Ioannis finally sees a pulse. That afternoon, the ENE swell bumps up to 4ft with a 7-second period, and combined energy jumps to 226 (moderate). The kicker? The wind goes glassy – dead calm, silky conditions. That’s a rare treat for this spot. The swell is still on the short side and coming from ENE, which isn’t the optimum NE direction the point prefers, but with clean conditions and some energy, it’s the standout. It won’t be big, but for a break that’s rarely working, you grab those glassy moments. The water temp is about average for this time of year. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, so on a rare working day, expect a few others in the water. This is the one to circle on the calendar if you’re desperate for a surf.
After that, the 10th of September looks marginal at best, with cross-onshore winds messing it up, and then it fades back to nothing through the rest of the run. It’s a tough outlook, mate – but that Wednesday afternoon is honest, clean fun.
Rusty.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Agios Ioannis may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
