The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell ya straight up, it's been a tough run at Damneck Naval Base. I’ve been lookin’ at the charts and there’s a big ol’ gap with nothin’ worth paddlin’ out for from now right through to the end of the first week of August. We're talkin' close to a week of flat, messy, or just plain weak conditions. The water temp is sittin' around 78°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so at least you won't be freezin' while you're waitin' for somethin' to show up.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Monday, the 17th of August. The morning session is the one to aim for. We've got a little 3ft swell creepin' in from the ENE, and the wind is glassy – absolute dead calm. That's a rare treat, and for a spot that's fairly consistent, it'll be clean as a whistle. It's a beginner-friendly wave size, so it won't be too heavy, but the energy is still pretty weak (87). It's surfable, but don't expect any barrels.
Honestly, after that glassy morning on the 17th, the rest of the forecast window just fizzles out again. The afternoon of the 17th gets chopped up by a cross-shore, and Tuesday the 18th is a write-off with weak 2ft ENE swell and a messy cross-shore wind. There's no standout period here; that one Monday morning is the only time the stars even partially align. It's been a lean stretch.
