What's up, Rusty here, and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – Annascaul Rivermouth is looking pretty flat and funky for the next couple of weeks. Usually this spot pumps, but right now it's a struggle. Water temp is about 63°F, which is a good 4°F warmer than average for July – feels nice, but no waves to enjoy it.
It starts Sunday the 5th with a weak 5ft W swell and onshore wind – junk. Monday and Tuesday the 6th and 7th stay small and choppy. Wednesday the 8th morning gives a brief window: glassy, 4ft from the west, 9-second period, moderate energy (263). Barely worth paddling out. Then nothing until Monday the 13th. That morning and afternoon bring clean offshore breezes (NE/ENE), 4–4ft W swell with a longer 11-second period and energy in the 300s. This is the pick of the litter – still only fair, but clean. Tuesday the 14th morning has a smaller 3ft with offshore wind, then another lull.
The only other blip is Sunday the 19th afternoon: a 7ft pulse from the west, short 8-second period, strong energy (531). But the wind is cross-onshore and quality is poor – too big for beginners, and messy for the rest. After that it's tiny again through the 20th.
Honestly, no standout sessions. The swell's coming from the west, but this rivermouth wants southwest. If you're itching for a wave, the 13th is your best shot with clean conditions. This break is usually very consistent, so a dry spell like this can't last forever – forecasts shift. I'm Rusty.

Information about the Annascaul Rivermouth Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Annascaul Rivermouth provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Annascaul Rivermouth can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Annascaul Rivermouth surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Annascaul Rivermouth) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. 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 Annascaul Rivermouth 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
