The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Agios Ioannis. It’s one of those periods where the ocean just isn’t cooperating.
The water is sitting at a very warm 80°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year. Don’t expect that warmth to bring any waves though.
For the first week, from Tuesday 14 July right through to Sunday 19 July, there’s barely a ripple. The combined energy of any swell directed here is next to nothing, reading 0 or just 1 (weak energy). Winds are mostly light and variable, with a few glassy mornings, but without any swell, it’s a flat calm. You’ll be looking at a mirror-like ocean, not a surfable wave.
We start to see a tiny pulse of energy on the 21st of July (Tuesday afternoon), with a 3 ft swell from the ENE, but the period is a short 6 seconds, and the wind is light cross-onshore. The combined energy reading is still low at 53. It’s a marginal call at best, and the break is already inconsistent, so don’t hold your breath.
The 22nd of July (Wednesday morning) offers the best chance in this whole outlook. We’ll see a 4 ft swell from the NNW, with a 5-second period, and light cross-onshore breeze. The combined energy is 60 (weak to moderate). It’s still small, short-period stuff, and the break is exposed, so it’ll be a bit fat and weak. Definitely not a standout, but it’s the only window where you might get a few knee-high rollers.
After that, it’s back to flat or near-flat conditions through to the 29th of July. The energy levels are non-existent, and the winds are a mixed bag of cross-shore and offshore breezes, but with no swell to work with, it doesn’t matter.
The absolute best option on offer is the morning of Wednesday 22 July. It’s the biggest swell of the period at 4 ft, with a bit of combined energy (60). It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only window where the break might actually be doing something. The water is warm, so if you’re desperate, that’s your window.
Otherwise, it’s a long dry spell. Stay patient, forecasts can change.
Rusty.

Information about the Agios Ioannis Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Agios Ioannis provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Agios Ioannis can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Agios Ioannis surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Agios Ioannis) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
Agios Ioannis is 19 km (12 miles) from the city of Volos. If you plan a holiday in Aegean Sea, look for hotels and other accommodation in Volos. Volos has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
