The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got one spot on the menu for the next 16 days, and it’s a bit of a mixed bag.
The overall pattern is that we’ve got a consistent stretch of surf coming in, but the trade winds are going to be a constant pain. The water is sitting at 80°, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.
We’re looking at Baldwin Beach Park (Maui). This reef and point setup is very consistent, so it’s always trying to offer something. The first real action starts Saturday afternoon, the 1st of August. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the ENE, but it’s short period at 8 seconds. The wind is howling out of the east at 16 mph, making it choppy and cross. The combined energy is moderate at 861. It’s not great, but it’s there.
Sunday, the 2nd, is similar. Still a 7ft ENE swell, but again that 16 mph east wind is keeping things messy. The energy drops a touch to 694. The afternoon sees a slight drop to 6ft. It’s still marginal.
The best of the bunch, and the only real standout, is going to be the window from Monday, the 4th of August, through Tuesday, the 5th. The swell drops to a more manageable 5ft to 5ft, but look at the period – it jumps to 11 seconds! That’s proper groundswell energy. The winds also ease back to a gentle 9 mph cross-shore breeze. The wave energy is still moderate (444 to 533), but the conditions will be much cleaner than the weekend. For a point break like this, that longer period will wrap in nicely. It’s not huge, but it’ll be the cleanest surf we see.
After that, the quality fades. From Wednesday the 6th onward, the swell drops below 5ft, the period drops back to short, and the wind stays onshore or cross-shore in the 12-16 mph range. The 16th of August sees a tiny bump back up to 6ft, but the period is a weak 8 seconds and the wind is still pumping. For a stretch of about 10 days in the middle, it’s pretty poor. Beginners might find the 5ft+ days a bit much, but honestly, the chop is the real enemy here.
If you’re a local, you know this spot can handle a bit of wind, but for a paddle surfer, the first week is a write-off except for that Monday-Tuesday window. The rest of the run looks more interesting for a kite surfer than someone with a shortboard.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
