Alright, grab your coffee, let's have a look at what's on offer for the next couple of weeks for Anaehoomalu Bay – A-Bay (Hawaii).
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: we're looking at a long, slow grind. The first week and a half is basically a write-off. The swell energy is barely a whisper, and most days are tagged with "poor surf conditions." We're starting on July 8th with nothing, and that flat spell just stretches out. There's a bit of a tease starting July 13th afternoon – the wind goes glassy and the combined swell energy creeps into the low hundreds at 100, but we're only talking a tiny 1ft swell from the SW with a 14-second period. That period is nice but the size just ain't there to do anything with it at this reef and point setup.
The real, and I mean *only*, moment worth circling on the calendar around here is Wednesday, July 15th. Get this: the afternoon brings a rain shower pass, but the wind goes glassy – dead calm. That's huge. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the W with a 16-second period, and the combined energy sits at 310, which for this spot is about as good as it's gonna get in this window. That's the one window where it might feel like surfing. But, you gotta keep your expectations in check – that's a long-period swell, and on a beach-and-reef setup like this, it can break a bit straight.
Before and after that date, it's a mix of onshore and cross-off winds with nothing to get excited about. From the 16th through the 22nd, we're back to tiny slop and flat spells. The water temp anomaly is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
If you've got a kite, you might find something to play with, but for a paddle surfer? This is one of those blank runs that just happens here. Forecasts change, but for now, save your energy.
