The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s heading for Avalon 15th Street in the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the start is a real bummer. From Monday the 27th of July right through the end of July and into early August, it’s mostly “poor surf conditions.” The swell is tiny – mostly 0.4 to 0.9 feet – and the wind is often cross-onshore, leaving it choppy and messy. There’s a cleaner window on Wednesday the 29th of July morning with a moderate offshore breeze from the WNW, but the swell is still just 2 feet, with weak energy. Not enough to get you out of bed.
Friday the 31st of July afternoon goes glassy, with the wind dropping to nothing, but the swell is flat at 1 feet. It’s a dead spell. This gap of poor surf lasts a full week.
The real standout is a week away, on Monday the 3rd of August. The morning is the best session by far. The swell jumps to 5 feet from the SSE, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy kicks up to a strong level (401). That’s a proper pulse. Winds are light from the West, giving us a clean, cross-off breeze. The water temp is 75°, which is about normal for the time of year. This is a solid, clean day for a beginner-friendly break, though 5 feet might be a bit much for total novices. The waves will be small but punchy and clean. After that morning, the swell backs off in the afternoon.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums for the rest of the second week. Tiny swell (1 to 3 feet) and a mix of onshore and cross-onshore winds. Nothing else worth paddling for. The energy stays low, often under 100. It stays small and mostly messy.
So, the only real window is Monday the 3rd of August morning. Get out there early.
Rusty.
