G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks aren’t looking great for a proper surf at Agios Ioannis. This is a point break that’s inconsistent, and it only really works when the swell comes from the NE. Problem is, we’ve got a long gap of flat or tiny, messy waves to start.
The first real hope doesn’t show up until Monday, July 21. That morning, we’ll see a pulse of 4ft swell from the ENE, with a period of 7 seconds, and combined wave energy sitting at 156 (moderate). Winds are cross from the NNW at 9 mph, so it’s a little choppy. It’s not a standout, but it’s the first sign of life after a long stretch of nothing.
The following day, Tuesday, July 22, picks up a bit more: 5ft from the ENE, same 7-second period, and energy climbing to 237 (moderate). But it’s still cross-shore wind, and there’s a risk of thunderstorms in the morning. Not ideal.
Now, the best window in the whole outlook is Thursday, July 23. The morning is still marginal with 5ft ENE swell and 294 energy, but it’s the afternoon that’s the real gem. The swell holds at 5ft from the ENE, same period, but the wind goes glassy offshore from the NNE at 3 mph. That’s the cleanest session we’ll see. The break will be offering up some proper waves, but remember, it’s a point break that’s inconsistent, so don’t expect non-stop action. At 5ft, it’s a good size for intermediates, but it’s not a beginner wave, especially with the occasional longer set.
After that, it fades again. The glassy conditions on Friday, July 24 and Saturday, July 25 are nice, but the swell drops to 3ft or less, and energy fades into the weak range. Not worth the drive.
The final chance comes on Tuesday, July 28. The morning brings 5ft from the ENE, 8-second period, and a solid 429 energy (moderate-to-strong). Glassy conditions from the N at 3 mph. That’s another session that could be really good, but it’s over a week away, so keep an eye on the forecast. The afternoon turns cross-onshore, which will mess it up a bit.
Overall, if you’ve got to pick, the Thursday, July 23 afternoon glass-off is the best bet. The water is much warmer than usual for this time of year, sitting at 80°, so you’ll be comfortable in a shorty or even trunks.
Stay tuned, the forecasts can change, but for now, don’t get your hopes up too high for the next week.
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.
