The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ at Akabane Long Beach. To be straight with you, the next week and a half is gonna be a real struggle. We’ve got a long dry spell of tiny, weak surf ahead, so don’t bother paddling out unless you’re desperate for a float. The real action doesn’t start showing signs of life until the first week of August.
Right now, and for the next several days, we’re looking at waves that are barely a whisper. From Thursday the 23rd of July right through to the end of the month, the swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 2ft, and the combined energy is weak, often below 100 or just creeping into the low 100s (43-161 range). The winds are a mixed bag, but the swell is just too small to get excited about. There are a few glassy mornings, like Friday the 24th and Sunday the 26th, but with only knee-high slop, it’s not worth the paddle.
We finally see a pulse of real energy arriving on Sunday the 2nd of August. The morning shows a cleaner picture with a 3ft ESE swell, period 15 seconds, and a combined energy of 458, which is a solid moderate boost. The wind is light and offshore from the NW, so it’ll be clean. That’s the first proper sign of life.
The standout window is Monday the 3rd of August. The morning session is the pick of the whole forecast. We’re talking about 6ft of ESE groundswell with a very long period of 18 seconds, pushing a combined energy of 1976. That’s strong energy. Winds are glassy from the west, so it’ll be smooth. This is proper, powerful groundswell. For a long beach setup, that long period can sometimes make waves break straight, but with that size and clean conditions, experienced surfers are going to have a field day. It’s heavy enough to be expert-only territory at over 5ft, so keep that in mind.
Tuesday the 4th of August keeps the size up with a 7ft ESE swell and a period of 17 seconds (energy 2394), but the wind swings onshore from the ESE, making it choppy and cross-on. It’s still big, but messy. Wednesday the 5th sees the swell drop and the wind stays ugly, so it’s a no-go.
If you’re an experienced surfer, circle that Monday 3rd of August morning session. It’s the only true standout. The rest of the run is flat or blown out.
