Table - best surf conditions forecast for Damneck Naval Base over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s run through this. Damneck Naval Base – the whole 16 days from July 8th to July 23rd is looking like a total dud. This break is usually fairly consistent and a good beginner spot, but right now we’ve got nothing worth paddling out for. Swell heights barely tickle 2 to 4 ft, periods are short (4–8 seconds), and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making a mess. Water temp is 79°F, about normal for this time of year (anomaly 2°F), so at least it’s warm.
First couple days – Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th – are poor: tiny energy (46–60 combined) and crummy conditions. Friday the 10th has a brief offshore window with waves around 1 ft, but it’s barely rideable. Saturday and Sunday the 11th–12th get worse. Around the 13th–14th we see a bump to 4–4 ft from ENE, but the wind is howling onshore at 15–19 mph, combined energy hits 135–200, yet it’s still called “poor surf conditions.” Total waste. After that it fades to tiny stuff again, with only a few moments of cleaner but tiny swell (1–3 ft) on the 15th, 19th, 22nd, and 23rd – all scoring zero or one. No standout in this entire stretch. For a spot that’s usually fairly consistent, this is a rough patch. But forecasts change – it rarely stays this flat for long. Hang tight.
