The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, things are looking a bit flat and wonky. For the first week or so, we’ve got some groundswell trying to push in, but the conditions are keeping it from being any good. The real story is a total lack of quality. We’re looking at a long stretch of marginal surf and poor surf conditions from late July all the way through the first week of August. It’s a frustrating gap.
The only spot with any pulse is Corona Del Mar Jetty. It’s fairly exposed to the swell, but the wind is a killer. On Monday the 27th, we’ve got a 4ft SW groundswell with a very long 18-second period, and the combined energy is moderate (781). That’s a beautiful swell, but it’s coming in with light onshore wind. It’s just not clean. The water temp is about average for the time of year, which is fine.
Tuesday the 28th sees a similar story: a 4ft SSW swell, still a long period, but the wind stays onshore. The energy is still decent (876). It’s frustrating because the ingredients are there, but the wind is messing it up.
The best chance in this whole run looks like Thursday the 30th. The morning shows a 5ft swell from the S, with a shorter period of 14 seconds. The combined energy is strong (919). The wind is light cross-onshore, so it’s not perfect, but it’s the biggest swell of the period and the least messy. This is the only real standout, and it’s still a gamble. The size is right on the edge of being too much for beginners, but it’s doable for a confident intermediate.
After that, it’s a slow slide into nothing. By Sunday the 2nd of August, the swell drops to 2ft and the energy plummets (166). From then on, it’s all poor surf conditions with wave heights barely breaking 1ft through the middle of the month. The combined energy dips into weak two-digit numbers (67), and the wind is either onshore or cross-shore. It’s a total flat spell.
Don’t get your hopes up for the second week. There’s a tiny flicker of life around the 9th of August with a 3ft SSW swell, but the energy is weak (331) and the wind is just cross-onshore again. It’s not worth a trip.
If you’re a kite surfer, the stronger onshore winds on the bigger days might be fun, but for a paddle board, this is a tough stretch. The forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
