The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a real struggle for the first week and a half. We've got a long stretch of poor surf conditions starting right now through to the end of the first week of August. Nothing's really going off. The wind is all over the place, mostly cross or cross-onshore, and the swell is tiny and weak. The water temperature is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that's one small comfort.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Monday the 3rd of August. That's a full week of waiting. On that Monday morning, we've got some solid energy arriving at Cabo Lastres, a point break that's a consistent expert spot. The swell is a very clean 6ft from the NW, with a nice groundswell period of 11 seconds. The kicker is the wind: it's glassy. That's the major win here. The combined swell energy is strong, hitting 703, so there's real power in the water. This is the standout of the whole forecast. It's got good size, decent direction, and that glassy morning will make it as clean as you'll see. For you experts, this is the call. The crowds are only sometimes an issue here, so you might get a bit of company, but the quality will be worth it.
After that Monday morning, it fades fast. The rest of the period is back to small, choppy, and poor conditions. The week of the 4th and 5th of August has tiny waves and onshore winds again. The glassy spells on the 5th morning are flat as a pancake, only 2ft, so not worth the paddle.
To sum it up: the next ten days are mostly a write-off for surf. The one and only true standout is the morning of Monday the 3rd of August at Cabo Lastres. Set your alarm for that one. Anything else in the second week is small and weak, and not worth getting excited about.
Keep your eyes on the horizon, and the froth level low until then.
Rusty.
