Alright, let me give you the word on Cap de la Chevre for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the first week and a half is pretty quiet. There's just not much energy in the water, so we'll have to wait it out. We start off on Sunday the 12th with weak little 2ft waves from the WNW, and that sets the tone for a long stretch of small, often messy surf. We have a long gap there with no real recommendations until things finally start to show some life.
The real standout, the one you want to circle on your calendar, is the morning of Monday the 21st of July. That's when we finally get a proper pulse of swell, with 7ft waves from the WNW, and the wind is light and offshore out of the ENE. The combined swell energy is a solid 589 (moderate wave energy), and it's gonna be clean. This is a point break that needs a solid WSW direction to work best, and while the swell is a bit off that, the size and clean conditions mean it's the best we've got. However, this is an expert-only break at that size—over 8ft, it'd be expert territory, and 7ft is still pretty serious. There will also be waves on the morning of the 22nd, about 6ft from the NW, but the wind is side-shore, so it won't be as clean as the day before.
The week after that, the swell drops back down to under 3ft, and the winds turn onshore or cross-onshore, so the quality fades quickly. By the 27th, we're looking at 4ft and choppy conditions.
So, to sum it up: keep your eyes locked on that Monday the 21st of July. That's the real window for Cap de la Chevre. The rest is a whole lot of waiting.
