The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking at Cap de la Chevre.
Right off the bat, we’re looking at a pretty grim run of surf. The first week is mostly a write-off, with a whole lot of small, weak, and messy conditions. The swell energy is weak, barely registering, and the wind is all over the shop, mostly cross or onshore. It’s not until Monday the 27th of July that we see a glimmer of hope.
That Monday morning, the 27th, is the standout. The wind drops to glassy, absolutely dead calm, and there’s a clean 1.5m groundswell rolling in from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 404 (moderate), and the wave comment says it’s expecting good surf. For a point break like this, that’s a proper session. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no real surprises there. Just keep in mind this is an expert-only wave, and it’s fairly consistent, though crowds can sometimes show up.
After that, the rest of the week is a letdown. Tuesday the 28th has a clean 1.0m offshorer, but it’s ordinary. Wednesday the 29th is glassy again with 0.9m, but it’s just surfable, not special.
Now, if you’re looking to the second week, there’s something promising way out there. Saturday the 1st of August has a big 1.6m WNW swell with a long 11-second period, and the energy rockets up to 1187 (strong). The wind is a gentle cross-shore, which is workable. The problem is the wave comment calls it marginal, and the score is low. On Sunday the 2nd of August, the swell gets even bigger – 2.4m from the same direction – but the wind is cross-on and it’s messy. That’s expert-only territory.
So, overall, the one true standout is the Monday morning glass-off on the 27th of July. Everything else is either small, windy, or too big and messy. If you can get out that Monday, you’ll be rewarded. But the rest of the 16-day window? It’s a lot of waiting and hoping for the forecasts to change.
Rusty.
