The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s on the menu at Agios Ioannis.
To be straight with you, this is a rough stretch for surf. The next two weeks are looking pretty grim. After a quick check, there are some tiny pulses of energy, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing. We’ve got a proper flat spell kicking off, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. There’s a gap of several days here with no real recommendations, so don’t rush to wax up just yet.
We’ll see a flash of something around the end of the first week of September. But before that, the water is sitting at a warm 81° which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. It’s a tropical bath out there, but without the waves to enjoy it.
On the 3rd of September, Thursday afternoon, a little pulse tries to show up. You’re looking at a 5ft swell from the NNW with a period of 6 seconds—so that’s short-period, onshore junk. Combined energy is moderate though at 228, so there’s some push, but it’s a messy cross-onshore wind from the SE at 6 mph. The break is inconsistent at the best of times, and this isn’t the day to change that. Score is marginal at best.
Friday morning, the 4th of September, the water drops a touch but we get a 5ft swell from the NNW, period still short at 5 seconds. Combined energy drops to 172. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the WNW at 3 mph, so the surface will look good. But the wave quality is just ordinary. This is the only half-decent window in the whole forecast, and it’s still nothing to write home about. If you’re desperate, this is your window. For a point break like Agios Ioannis, it prefers the swell from the NE, so this NNW direction is far from optimum.
The rest of the time, it’s flat or barely knee-high dribble with wind either on it or cross-on. The crowds can be a problem here sometimes, but with this kind of showing, you’ll have the place to yourself. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer if the wind cooperates, but for us, it’s a long wait.
This is Rusty, signing off. It’s a waiting game, mate.

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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
