Table - best surf conditions forecast for Corona Del Mar Jetty over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's break this down for Corona Del Mar Jetty over the next couple weeks.
I'll be honest, it's a rough start. We've got a long stretch of small, weak, and blown-out conditions. The first real chance to get wet doesn't roll around until Saturday the 18th of July. Before that, from the 11th, it's just day after day of poor surf. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore. Wave heights are only 1 ft to 3 ft, with periods that are either too short or just out of sync. The wave energy is low, mostly in the 100s to low 300s, just telling you there's nothing in the water. For the first week, you might as well leave the board at home.
The Best of a Tough Run
The closest thing we have to a decent session is going to be Sunday the 19th of July. The swell finally pushes up a little. We're looking at a S swell of 4 ft on Sunday morning, with a period of 13 seconds. That's a proper groundswell, so the waves will have some shape and energy, but it might be a bit too lined-up for a beach break. The combined energy climbs to a moderate 752. The wind is a light cross-onshore from the SW at 6 mph. Not glassy, but surfable. Saturday afternoon the 18th also has a pulse of SSE swell at 3 ft, with a very long 18-second period and combined energy of 1015. But that cross-onshore wind is still a factor, making it a marginal call. For a spot that's fairly consistent, these are your only real windows.
The Second Week
Looking ahead, around the 25th of July, we see another S swell trying to push through at 4 ft with a 13-second period and combined energy of 884. Again, light cross-onshore wind. It's a hopeful sign after a long flat spell, but it's not locked in.
Overall, this is a pretty bleak forecast for Corona Del Mar Jetty. The swell is small, the wind is almost never right, and most of the time, the conditions look better for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. Your best bet is Sunday the 19th of July, but don't go expecting a world-class session.
