Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks here.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch ahead. There’s just nothing doing for the first few days, and really, it stays small and tricky for the rest of the run. The first proper chance to even think about a paddle comes on the morning of the 13th of July, but even then, it’s not going to be anything special.
For the first few days, forget it. The 9th and 10th of July are a total write-off. The 11th and 12th of July see a tiny bump of swell, but the wind is a mess. The best of a very average bunch looks to be the morning of the 14th of July. The swell is small at 2 ft from the east, but you’ve got a light, cross-off wind from the north (5 km/h) that’s making it look clean. The energy is low (24), so it’s a real grovel, but it might be the most surfable of the lot. The 15th of July morning is worth a mention too, with a tiny 1 ft and glassy conditions from the north, but it’s barely a ripple.
The water temperature is a standout here, though. 81°F on the 9th of July, with a massive anomaly of 6°F warmer than normal. That’s very unusual for this time of year, so it’s going to feel like a warm bath.
The rest of the time is just a mix of tiny swells, onshore winds, and chop. The 23rd of July morning sees a little more energy come through with a 4 ft, but it’s cross-on from the east and the whole thing is still rated as poor. The afternoon of the 23rd has the highest energy of the whole period at 117, but at 3 ft from the NE with a cross-on breeze, it’s not going to be clean.
Bottom line: there’s nothing here that’s a standout. The swell is too small, the energy is too weak, and the wind is rarely on your side. It’s a long, dry spell for any decent waves. I’d keep the board in the car and hope the forecasts change, because it’s not looking good for a paddle.
