The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for our little corner of the map over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple for days on end. The only break on the radar is Agios Ioannis, a point break that’s known for being inconsistent, and unfortunately, it’s living up to that reputation right now. The water is a balmy 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least the swim will be nice.
For the first week, from Tuesday the 21st right through to the end of July, the surf is just a no-go. We’re talking tiny, weak swell with a combined energy of just 1 (yes, one) and nothing but poor surf conditions. Winds are a mess, mostly cross or cross-onshore, and while we get a few glassy moments, there’s just no push to the waves. You’ll be floating around on flat water, not surfing. There’s a big gap of silence here, so don’t bother checking the buoys.
We finally see a little flicker of life as we move into August. The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday morning, August 1st. The swell is tiny, only 0.7ft of ENE windswell with a period of 5 seconds, but the wind is glassy from the ESE. The combined energy is a measly 1, so it’s barely surfable, but if you’re desperate for a knee-bouncer on a longboard, it might be the only window.
The best of a very bad bunch looks to be Tuesday, August 4th. The morning glass-off from the north will be a treat. Swell bumps up to 2ft from the east with a 6-second period, and the combined energy hits 33. It’s still small, but with clean conditions, that point could offer a few peelers. The wind is offshore for the morning, which is a major positive. The swell direction is from the east, too, which is close to the optimum NE direction for this spot.
Then on Wednesday, August 5th, we get another glassy morning, with a 2ft, 6-second easterly swell. The energy is 22, so it’s a bit weaker than Tuesday, but the calm conditions will make it look clean and invite you in for a paddle. Expect the lineup to be empty, as most folks will have given up by then.
Look, for this stretch, there are no true standouts. The small windows around August 4th and 5th are the best on offer, but only if you’re a local who’s happy to ride a 2-foot wave on a clean day. The rest of the time? Give the board a wax and wait.
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. 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.
