Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hanna Park/Mayport Poles over the next 16 days.
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Hanna Park/Mayport Poles. Truth be told, it’s a pretty quiet picture for a good long while. There’s nothing worth paddling out for in the immediate future. The first real chance of anything even surfable doesn’t show up until Sunday the 26th of July, and even then, it’s hardly something to write home about. That means a gap of nearly two weeks with absolutely nothing doing.
Water temperature at the start of the period is sitting at 85°, about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Let’s run through the whole thing quickly because there isn’t much to get excited about. From Sunday the 12th right through to Saturday the 25th, the story is the same: tiny swell and mostly “poor surf conditions” across the board. We’re talking heights barely reaching 1ft to 1ft, with short-period wind chop around 8 seconds or less. Combined swell energy is weak, mostly in the teens and twenties (25, 21, 2, 19, 29 – you get the idea). Winds do go offshore or glassy on plenty of mornings, like Wednesday the 15th with glassy conditions and Monday the 20th with light offshore, but there’s simply no swell to work with. It would be flat if you went out.
Now, the one and only highlight – if you can call it that – falls on Sunday the 26th of July. The morning session shows a tiny bump in swell to 3ft from the SSE, with a period of just 5 seconds. The combined energy climbs to a weak 54, which is still nothing special. The winds are light and cross-off from the south, leaving the surface clean. The report even calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s the best this stretch gets. It’s a small, weak windswell, but at least it won’t be blown out first thing. Expect it to get choppy by the afternoon as the wind swings onshore.
The afternoon of Monday the 27th sees a similar 3ft from the SE, but it’s cross-onshore and messy again.
So really, the only window is that Sunday morning, the 26th. If you’re desperate for a knee-high dribbler in clean conditions, that’s your slot. Otherwise, it’s a long wait.
Rusty.
