The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s call it like it is – Bob Hall Pier is looking bleak for the next couple of weeks. There’s just no surf worth chasing.
From this Sunday and Monday, we’ve got tiny, weak swell – maybe 1 to 2 feet from the SSE. The wind is cross-onshore or onshore, and the wave energy is basically nothing, sitting between 8 and 13. It’s flat and messy. Tuesday and Wednesday are the same story: a little more height, maybe 2 feet, but that SE wind is blowing right into it, and the energy only gets to 36. Still poor.
Thursday the 10th through Saturday the 12th, the swell struggles to hit 3 feet, and the wind picks up – moderate to fresh breezes from the SSE and SE keep things choppy and lumpy. The energy numbers stay in the 30s and 40s, so there’s no punch behind it. Not worth it.
By Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th, we finally see some size – 4 to 5 feet from the SE, and the energy jumps into the 100s and 200s, which is moderate. But the wind is still cross-onshore or onshore, and the period is short, only 6 to 7 seconds. That means weak, wind-chopped waves. The notes still say “poor surf conditions,” so it’s a no-go.
Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th offer a small window. The swell holds around 4 to 5 feet from the SE, and for the first time, we get some clean conditions with a cross-offshore breeze from the north. Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning are described as "clean." Even then, the period is short and the energy drops back to the 100s, so it’s not exactly firing. But if you’re really jonesing, those are the least bad windows.
From Thursday the 17th onward, it fades again – swell drops under 3 feet, energy falls into the 50s and 60s, and the wind turns back cross-onshore or onshore. By the end, it’s back to tiny, weak dribble.
Honestly, there is no standout day here. Not one session scores better than a 0 in the guidance. The water is about 86°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only interesting thing. Beginners might find the small stuff mid-week safe, but it won’t be fun. For everyone else, this is a long dry spell. The good news is Bob Hall Pier is usually consistent, so this flat patch won’t last forever – forecasts can change.
Keep an eye on it, and maybe bring a kite if the wind keeps blowing. Rusty out.
