The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’m looking at this forecast and it’s a tough one. We’ve got a real quiet run ahead. The first window of anything even remotely rideable doesn’t show up until the morning of Monday, the 3rd of August, and even then, it’s marginal. The swell is small, and the conditions are just… ordinary. There’s a gap of several days with no real recommendations before that.
The best of a pretty average bunch looks like it’ll be Ann Street Peaks. It’s a break that’s fairly consistent, and it’s set up to handle a bit of ESE swell, which is what we’ve got. The water is currently sitting at 68°—a bit colder than normal for this time of year, about 3° off, so you’ll want a decent spring suit.
Now, for the standout. If you’re looking for the cleanest window, keep your eyes on the morning of Tuesday, the 4th of August. We’ve got a glassy morning with a light WSW breeze, and the swell is just 2ft from the SE. It’s not going to blow you away, but with the combined swell energy sitting at 107 (moderate), it’s surfable. The period is a short 9 seconds, so it’s a bit of a windswell, but it’ll be clean. That’s your best chance for a few fun ones.
The other morning to circle is Wednesday, the 5th of August. We see a little bump up to 3ft from the E, with a light offshore WSW wind at 6 mph. The energy is a bit weaker (80), but it’ll be clean. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it won’t have much grunt, but it’s better than nothing.
After that, it’s pretty grim. The second week of August is a write-off. Swell drops to 1ft or less, and while the wind stays offshore or clean, there’s just no wave energy to work with. The energy values drop into the 20s and 30s (weak), and the swell is too small to do anything with. It’s a long, flat stretch.
So, to sum it up: Tuesday the 4th of August morning is your best bet for a glassy, clean surf, and Wednesday the 5th of August morning is a solid second option. For the rest of the run, it’s a board-waxing and tide-pool-watching kind of forecast.
Rusty.

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 Ann Street Peaks 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.
