Hey folks, Rusty here. I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day outlook for Hikkaduwa (A-Frame) is a real bummer. The whole stretch from July 11 all the way through to July 26 has nothing worth paddling out for. Every single session is marked as poor surf conditions, and that’s despite this spot being a fairly consistent reef break that usually handles a solid SW swell. Unfortunately, the wind is stuck in a bad pattern – mostly cross-on or onshore from the west or west-northwest at 12 to 16 mph, which just trashes the surface. The swell direction is all over the place, mostly from the west or south-southwest, not the optimum SW that the break really loves. Even when the swell height pops up to 6 ft or 6 ft, the energy is there – like 1214, 1158, up to 2307 on July 20 afternoon – but the wind kills it. Periods are a mix, some short around 7 seconds, some long up to 19 or 21 seconds, but it doesn’t matter because the conditions are consistently messy. You’ll see a few days with a 0 score across the board. No standout windows, no sneaky morning glass-off – just a long, flat, choppy slog. If you’re hanging on hope, the forecasts can change, but right now this blank run looks pretty normal for this time of year with the prevailing westerly breeze. I’d say give it a miss and check back later. Stay salty.
