The Lowdown
Alright, folks, let’s talk about Ann Street Peaks. I’ve been staring at the charts and, honestly, this stretch is a bit of a heartbreaker. The whole 16-day window is pretty bleak – no real standout sessions, just a lot of “poor surf conditions” stamped across the board. The water’s sitting at about 67°F, which is a couple of degrees colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent spring suit. The break itself is a beach-and-reef setup, fairly consistent, but the forecast just isn’t delivering.
We kick off Monday afternoon, July 27, with barely a ripple – 0.7ft of east swell, 13-second period, but it’s cross-on and only 6 mph, so you’re getting wind ripples and no push. Combined energy is a measly 28 (weak). Tuesday morning, July 28, brings a little more: 1ft from the ESE, 11 seconds, but the wind is cross-off from the SSW at 9 mph, so it’s clean but tiny. Energy 30. Still not worth paddling out. Wednesday morning, July 29, gets glassy with a light SW breeze at 3 mph and 2ft of 6-second windswell – energy 43. That’s about as good as it gets in the first week, and it’s still poor.
Then Friday, July 31, we see a spike: 6ft from the ESE, 7-second period, but it’s hammered by 16 mph cross-on SSE winds. Combined energy jumps to 660 (strong), but the chop is nasty. This is more kite-surfing territory than a clean paddle session. That pattern continues into early August – Saturday morning, August 1, has 3.6ft, but again cross-on winds and rain showers. Energy 199. Nothing to get excited about.
The second week offers a slight glimmer. Sunday morning, August 9, we get 4ft from the SE with an 11-second period, light cross breeze from the south at 6 mph, and energy 417. It’s only marginal, but the longer period means better shape. Monday morning, August 10, is the best of the bunch: 2.6ft SE, 10-second period, and a clean offshore from the NW
