The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Annascaul Rivermouth.
Honestly, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The whole 16-day stretch is looking pretty flat and uninspiring for a proper paddle. There’s a stretch of days with nothing worth paddling out for, right from the start. You’ll be sitting on the beach for a long time before anything even comes close to being worth a look.
The first real hint of something happening arrives on Sunday, August 2nd. In the morning, it’s glassy as a mirror with a tiny 2ft swell from the SW, but the energy is still weak (99). The afternoon, however, is the one true standout in this whole outlook. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the SW, with moderate wave energy (307) and a clean cross-off breeze from the ENE. That’s the best you’re going to get – a few hours of clean, surfable waves. But keep in mind, this spot is very consistent, so when it’s on, it’s on. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, pushing 63°, which is a nice bonus.
Monday the 3rd still has a bit of leftover swell, 4ft from the SW in the morning, but the energy is already dropping (166). It’s clean, but it’s fading fast. After that, it’s a slow slide into tiny, weak waves and poor conditions for the rest of the forecast. Swell drops below 2ft and the wind turns onshore or cross-shore, making things choppy and messy. There’s a long gap following that Monday with no real recommendations.
Given the tiny size and poor quality, combined with the beach-and-river-mouth setup, this whole period looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The wind is onshore for most of the second week, and the swell is just too small to do anything with.
Bottom line: If you’re desperate, you’ve got that Sunday afternoon window. Otherwise, save your energy. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, this is a long, quiet stretch.
Rusty.
