The Lowdown
Alright, mates, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on what’s ahead for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it’s a grim outlook. We’re looking at a long, dry patch. From Sunday the 19th right through to the end of July, it’s going to be a flat-out battle. Gantheaume Point is a spot that rarely breaks, and this stretch proves it. There’s hardly a bump. The swell is a flat 0.3 ft for most of it, and the wave energy is weak, barely registering (3). The wind is offshore or cross-offshore most days, which keeps the water glassy, but with no waves, it’s just a clean, flat pond. The water is running a bit cooler than average for this time of year, at 73°F.
A few tiny pulses show up right at the end. On Monday the 27th of July, Monday afternoon, we get a wobble of 1 ft from the WNW, but the period is a terrible 2 seconds – that’s just wind chop, not a rideable wave. The energy is a measly 1. We get a little more hope on Sunday the 2nd of August. By Sunday afternoon, there’s a groundswell pulse from the west with a 0.3 ft swell, but a long period of 14 seconds, lifting the energy to 7. The wind will be light and offshore from the SE, giving clean conditions. Monday the 3rd of August morning sees a similar pulse with a very long period of 21 seconds from the west, energy climbing to 11, but the swell height is still only 0.3 ft. It’s a classic case of a long-period groundswell that just doesn’t have the height to wrap in.
So here’s the truth. There is no real standout. Not one. The best sessions are the Sunday afternoon on the 2nd of August and Monday morning on the 3rd of August, but calling them “good” is a stretch. They’re just the least bad options. For a spot that rarely breaks, this is a normal flat spell. The forecast can change, but right now, I’d be leaving the board at home. If you’re into kiting, the setup might be more interesting, but for paddle surfing, it’s a tough one.
Rusty.
