Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Alykes over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this stretch is looking flat as a pancake right the way through. We’ve got a solid 16 days on the cards, but there’s not a single proper wave in sight. It’s a long, quiet gap with no real surf on offer, so don’t be expectin’ to paddle out for a decent session any time soon.
For Alykes (Zakynthos), the story’s all about flat calm conditions. The water temp is sittin’ about average for this time of year, nothin’ unusual there. Through Friday 3rd July we’ve got glassy mornings and clean afternoons, but with zero swell energy (0) there’s just nothin’ to ride. Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th follow the same pattern – a tiny 0.7ft ripple pops up Sunday afternoon with a period of just 2 seconds and weak energy (1), but that’s barely a ripple, let alone a wave. It’s poor surf conditions all round.
The week after is more of the same. Monday 6th through to Saturday 18th July – all clear skies, light breezes and glassy patches, but the combined swell energy stays at zero day after day. There’s simply no swell reachin’ this shore. For the beginners or anyone just wantin’ a float around on a flat board, the conditions are pretty, but for actual surfing? Nothin’ doin’.
Given the lack of any decent swell, the setup here is more of a paddlin’ or swimmin’ spot right now. Hang tight, forecasts can always turn around, but for now it’s a blank run that’s pretty typical for the area when the swell windows close up. Keep an eye on the charts, boys.
Rusty.
