Amoudia Left Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s in store for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, I’ve got to level with you – it’s a pretty bleak stretch of small surf ahead. We’re looking at a long, flat spell that’s going to test your patience. For the better part of the next 16 days, the ocean is just not cooperating at Amoudia Left. That’s the only spot with any info, a classic point break that’s known for being inconsistent, so this kind of blank run isn’t totally out of the ordinary. The water temperature is sitting at 82°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.

From Thursday the 20th of August all the way through to the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September, it’s a total write-off. We’re talking tiny, bumpy dribble with hardly any energy. The combined swell energy barely reaches double digits, often just a couple of units, and the period is so short there’s no push. The wind is mostly onshore or light, but the swell just isn’t there to make anything of it.

Now, finally, on the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September, there’s a little flicker of hope. We’ve got a 4ft swell rolling in from the northwest, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 116, which is moderate, and the wind is glassy. That’s the standout window in the whole outlook. The size is small, but with those clean conditions, it’s your best shot. Keep in mind, it’s a short-period swell, so it won’t have the punch of a groundswell, but for a point break like Amoudia Left, it might just line up alright. The afternoon sees the wind swing onshore, so make the most of that morning.

After that, it drops right back off into flatness again. Nothing of note on the 3rd or 4th of September.

Best bet? Mark your calendar for the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September. It’s the only real chance in the whole 16 days, and it’s a long way off, so keep an eye on the forecasts.

Rusty.
