Amoudia Left Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the next couple weeks for Amoudia Left.

Well, I’ll be honest with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. The first solid surf we see is a tiny 1ft WNW groundswell with a short 4-second period rolling in on Friday morning, July 10th. It’s glassy with a light ENE breeze, but with such minimal energy (5) and poor surf conditions flagged, this isn’t one to get excited about. The water is sitting at 79° – a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the swim will be nice, but the waves won’t be.

From there, we hit a real dry spell. Saturday and Sunday barely register anything, with combined energy values in the single digits or zero. The swell stays tiny, the period stays short, and the afternoons get chopped up by onshore westerly winds. Not worth paddling out for.

There’s a bit of a bump starting Monday morning, July 13th, with a 2ft WNW swell and a 6-second period, but still energy is only moderate at best (24). By Tuesday the 14th, the morning glass-off with zero wind might give you a clean little 1ft wave, but honestly, you’ll be scratching for much.

The pattern holds through the middle of the month: small WNW pulses, glassy mornings, and then onshore westerlies ruining the afternoons. The Thursday the 16th afternoon shows a 2ft NW swell – the biggest we see in the whole period, but with a short period and onshore wind, it’s not going to be quality.

Friday the 17th has a 2ft WNW swell on the morning glass-off – that’s probably the cleanest window of the whole outlook, but still only 21 units of energy. Not a standout, just the best of a quiet bunch.

We get a little spike on Monday, July 20th, with a 2ft WSW swell and a 6-second period, showing the highest combined energy of the entire forecast at 32. But the afternoon wind picks up to 12 mph onshore, so you’ll want to hit it in the morning glass.

After that, it fades again. Tuesday the 21st has a glassy morning with a 0.3ft NW swell – nearly nothing. Wednesday the 22nd onward sees small 1ft pulses, and by Friday July 24th right through to Saturday the 25th, the swell flatlines completely with zeros across the board. A total gap of at least a couple days with no surf to speak of.

Let’s be straight: there is no standout session here. The waves are small, inconsistent, and weak. The best bet for the whole stretch is the morning of Monday July 20th – glassy, 2ft from the WSW, and the most energy we see. But for a left point break that needs a decent W swell, this is a frustrating run. It’s not a total write-off, but you’d be waiting a long time between set waves. For the experienced surfer who knows the spot, you might get a few fun ones on that Monday morning. Beginners won’t have much to work with.

Hopefully the forecasts change, because this stretch looks slim.
