The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ll be honest with you – the next 16 days here are looking like a tough stretch. We’ve got a big gap of nothing until the end of the month, so let’s get into it.
First up, the water is running at about 83°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year. You’ll be surfing in a bath, but it’s a nice change.
For the first week and a half, there’s simply nothing to get excited about. From Wednesday the 12th right through to Saturday the 22nd of August, it’s flat or near-flat almost every day. We’re talking tiny dribbles of 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft with periods around 4 to 5 seconds – that’s just wind chop. The combined energy is basically zero. The mornings are glassy but useless. The afternoons turn onshore from the west, making it messy. It’s a proper dry spell, and for a spot like Amoudia Left, which is already inconsistent, this is a long, quiet stretch.
Now, late on Sunday the 23rd of August, something finally tries to show up. Sunday morning we see a bump of 4 ft from the NW with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 133 (moderate). The wind is calm and glassy, so it’ll be clean. But the swell is short period and the notes say “very ordinary conditions.” It’s surfable but not a standout. The afternoon goes to crap with a strong 16 mph onshore, so the window is tight.
Monday the 24th of August morning drops back to 1 ft – not worth the paddle.
The real standout, the only one worth setting an alarm for, is looking like Friday the 21st and Saturday the 22nd of August. I know these are weak numbers, but it’s the best we’ve got. Friday morning has 1.0 ft from the SW, period 5 seconds, combined energy 4 to 7. The wind is calm and glassy in the morning. Saturday morning gets a touch bigger at 1 ft from the SW, same short period, but with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SE, keeping it clean. The combined energy is 7. For this break, with a WSW optimum direction, the SW swell is close enough to work. The crowd is “often” here, so expect a few locals out. It’s tiny, but it’s clean and glassy – that’s your best bet.
Beyond that, the last few days of the month (24th to 27th August) are back to tiny, weak pulses with no energy to speak of.
So, to sum it up: the first 10 days are a write-off. The 23rd has a brief, messy window. The only real highlight is the morning of the 21st and 22nd of August – small, clean, and glassy. It’s not a bombing swell, but it’s the only game in town.
Rusty.

Information about the Amoudia Left Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Amoudia Left provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Amoudia Left can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Amoudia Left 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 (Amoudia Left) 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 Amoudia Left 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.
