Surf Forecasts:
The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a heartbreaker looking at this forecast. The surf options are a total blank for the entire 16-day stretch. There is nothing at all on the table for Durand Beach. We’ve got a full lockout with zero rideable swell energy coming our way. The wave models are showing nothing but zeros across the board, which spells a flat spell that's going to test your patience.
We’re looking at a solid gap with no recommendations for the whole period. It’s not just a day or two of small waves; this is a complete shutdown. The winds will switch around and offer some clean, glassy mornings, but with no groundswell to push through, it’s all for nothing. We'll see some gentle offshore breezes, especially on the Saturday morning of the 22nd, but again, with no swell, that makes for a flat, but pretty, ocean.
The bright side? This kind of blank run can’t last forever. Forecasts change, and with the weather patterns looking active toward the end of the month, there’s a chance something gets stirred up. But as it stands, you’re better off waxing the longboard for a paddle, or maybe checking the kite spots if the wind fills in. Just don't get your hopes up for any waves.
Keep the faith.

Information about the Durand Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Durand Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Durand Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Durand Beach surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Durand Beach) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Durand Beach may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Durand Beach is 42 km (26 miles) from Oswego. If you plan a vacation in Lake Ontario - United States, look for hotels and other accommodation in Oswego. Oswego has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
