The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you—this 16-day window is a real struggle. There’s nothing to get excited about, and I mean nothing. The first bit of surf we see is just a whisper on the morning of Monday, July 20th, but it’s barely a ripple.
From Monday, July 20th, through to Friday, August 4th, it’s a long, flat grind. We’re only talking about a tiny 0.3ft swell from the north with a short period of 9 seconds—that’s just not enough push to do anything. The wave energy is gutless, sitting at a measly 2 for that first Monday morning. Wind is offshore from the ENE, which would normally be a cruiser, but with no swell, it’s just a waste of clean conditions. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
The only spot on the radar is Batts Rock (Barbados). It’s a point break, inconsistent and it rarely breaks, so this flat spell isn’t a surprise. It’s a spot that needs a proper swell from the north to work, and we just don’t have it. The offshore wind is present, but it’s like having a perfect car and no gas. The crowd factor is listed as “sometimes,” but honestly, even the seagulls won’t be out.
We get a few more days of the same tiny 0.3ft swell, like on Friday, July 31st, and Saturday, August 1st, but it’s still poor. The period bumps up to 10 seconds on the 1st, but that’s still just a weak, inconsistent groundswell that’s going to break too straight for a beach break. The energy is still pathetic, sitting at 1 or 2. The wind stays offshore, but it’s fresh at 19 mph on some days, which is just a stiff breeze on flat water.
Bottom line: this is a blank run. For a break that’s already inconsistent, this is par for the course. Keep the board in the car, but don’t bother paddling out. The forecasts can always change, but right now, there’s not a single standout wave in the whole 16 days.
Rusty.
