Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ve had a good look at the charts for our region. I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch for Cabo Lastres. This is a quality point break that usually loves a good groundswell, but the next week and a half or so looks flat and messy.
The water’s running about 70°, which is *much warmer* than normal for this time of year, so at least the wait will be comfortable.
For the first 13 days of the forecast, from the 5th of July right through to the 17th, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. There are plenty of days with tiny waves, often onshore or cross-onshore winds, and the energy levels are pathetic – we're seeing combined energies of just 26, 35, 59 – all well under 100. There’s a glassy moment on the 10th and 17th, but with swells only 2 feet, it’s barely a ripple. Don’t bother rushing down.
The only flicker of hope arrives on Saturday, the 18th of July. The morning and afternoon both show a punchy increase in energy. We’re looking at a combined swell energy of 335 to 362, which finally gets us into moderate territory. The swell will be about 4 feet, coming from the NW with a period of 11 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell with some push, and the wind is forecast to be a gentle cross-shore breeze from the ENE. That’s not perfect, but it’s workable and should groom the waves a bit. It’s still only rated as "marginal" overall, and the wave modelling doesn't sound super clean. It might be a bit cross-chop, but for this break, that NW direction and long period should wrap in nicely. It'll be a little too much for beginners, but for the experts who can handle that, it's your only real window.
After that, it looks like we slide back into small, poor conditions. There’s a distant chance for the 20th of July with a similar swell height and a cross-onshore wind, but the quality is poor again.
So let’s call it: this is a blank run for the most part, typical for a quiet spell. The standout, if you can call it that, is the 18th of July at Cabo Lastres. It’s not a classic day by any stretch, more a case of "something is better than nothing." Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, don't get your hopes up.
