Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's on the cards for Crooklets-Bude over the next couple of weeks.

Well, to be honest, it’s a bit of a slow start and a long stretch of small, weak conditions. We’re looking at a gap until around Friday the 22nd before anything really gets our attention. The water is currently sitting at 18°, which is much warmer than what you'd normally expect for this time of year – a nice surprise for an early dip.

The first real glimmer of surfable waves shows up on the morning of Wednesday the 22nd. We’ve got a 5ft swell rolling in from the west with a 7-second period, pushing a moderate wave energy of 255. The wind is light and offshore from the east, which should keep things clean. This one is getting into that size where it might be a bit much for beginners. However, the standout session looks like the afternoon of Wednesday the 22nd. The swell holds at 5ft from the west, the period bumps up to 8 seconds, and the energy is solid at 280. With that offshore breeze from the east-southeast still light, conditions are expected to be good. This is your best bet in the whole forecast window.

After that, things get messy. By Thursday the 23rd, the wind swings onshore and the quality drops right off, with a strong cross-onshore breeze making it choppy. We've got some swell around on Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th, with the swell height getting up to 5ft and energy levels hitting 335 on Saturday afternoon, but the wind stays onshore and lumpy. That combination of significant size and poor wind makes the setup more interesting for kite surfing than for a clean paddle session. It’s a shame because the energy is there, but the wind just ruins it.

So, to wrap it up, you’ve got a long wait for a short window. Mark your calendar for the afternoon of Wednesday the 22nd if you want the cleanest waves of the lot.

Keep it salty,
Rusty
