The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough run. The forecast is showing a real flat spell for most of the 16-day window. We’re lookin’ at a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and mostly cross-onshore breezes that’ll mess up what little is there. You’re gonna be waiting a while for anything that’s even worth paddling out for.
Kicking things off, we’ve got Agios Ioannis (point). The water is sitting at 80°F right now, which is a solid 5°F above the norm for this time of year. That’s much warmer than usual, so you can leave the thick rubber at home. But that’s about the only good news. The surf is basically non-existent from the 16th of July all the way through until the 24th. There’s a whole lot of days with combined swell energy barely registering, often just 1 or 2 (weak energy). You’ll see a few pulses of 1ft to 2ft, but with short periods of 3 to 5 seconds, and the wind is either cross-on or cross-shore, it’s just messy. Saturday the 25th of July shows a bit of a pulse, with swell coming from ENE at 4ft and a period of 7 seconds, bumping the combined energy up to 128 (moderate energy). But with cross-onshore winds from the NNE at 9 mph, it’s still gonna be a choppy, crumbly mess. That afternoon the wind swings more cross-shore, dropping the swell to 3ft, but it’s still not great.
The best chance we see in this whole stretch lands on Tuesday the 28th of July. That afternoon, a 3ft easterly swell with a 6-second period rolls in, and the combined energy hits 114 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-on from the north at just 3 mph, so it’s almost glassy. For this spot, that’s a standout. The break is a point, so it will handle that east swell better than a beach. Keep in mind though, this break is inconsistent, and it can get crowded sometimes. It’s not a guarantee, but it’s the best we’ve got.
The last few days of the month into the 31st of July are back to tiny, with 1ft to 2ft waves and glassy conditions in the mornings, but just not enough juice to get excited about. The 29th of July morning has a 3ft ENE swell with a 7-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind from the NNW at 12 mph, which is a nice combo, but the energy is only 93 (weak energy), so it’s a bit of a tease.
Overall, this is a lean period. If you’ve got the patience, wait for the 28th of July afternoon. Otherwise, it’s a good time to tune up your gear.
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.
