The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are a real mixed bag. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, calm days before any real energy shows up. There’s a distinct gap, so don’t get your hopes up too early.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Sunday the 26th of July at Broadhaven South. We’ll see a pulse of swell push in, with waves around 5ft coming from the west. The period is short, just 7 seconds, so it’s a bit of a windswell, not the cleanest groundswell. The wind is offshore, which is a big plus, but with that short period and the swell being a bit raw, it’s not going to be a classic. The combined wave energy is moderate (225). It’s a start, but it’s not the standout.
After that, the surf fades away again. We get a few days of tiny, weak waves and then things really start to shift. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.
The real standout arrives on Monday the 3rd of August. This is the one to circle. The morning session at Broadhaven South looks excellent. We’ve got a solid 7ft swell from the west-southwest, with a fair period of 8 seconds. The wind is offshore from the WNW, which will keep the waves clean and lined up. The combined wave energy is strong (681). This is a proper swell, with plenty of power. The break is a bit inconsistent here, so don’t expect a wave every minute, but when they come, they’ll be worth paddling for. This is the best on offer, folks. With the swell size over 8ft, this is really only for experienced surfers.
Tuesday the 4th of August is also worth a mention. The morning has a clean 4ft swell from the southwest, with a longer period of 10 seconds. The wind is near-glass, just a light offshore from the WNW. The combined energy is moderate (462). This is a much more manageable size, and the longer period means better shaped waves. This is a solid option for the intermediate surfer, and the light wind will make it glassy. This is the second standout.
The rest of the run into the second week sees a drop in quality, with onshore winds and smaller, choppier conditions. The surf on the 6th and 7th of August is small and weak, not worth the paddle out. The final day on the 8th of August is flat again.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off for surf. The real action is on Monday the 3rd of August for the big, powerful swell, and Tuesday the 4th of August for the cleaner, more user-friendly waves. Don’t bother with the rest.
