Alright, fellow surfers, Rusty here. Looking at the 16-day window for Horace Caldwell Pier, I gotta be straight with you – there’s pretty much nothing worth paddling out for. The whole stretch from July 7th through to July 22nd is filled with poor surf conditions, choppy cross-onshore winds, and tiny, weak swell. Most days the combined swell energy is under 100 (weak), and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” almost every slot.
The only slight glimmer is on Tuesday morning, July 14th – we get a glassy morning with a light WSW offshore breeze at 3 mph, and the wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions”. Swell height is about 3 ft from SE with a period of 6 seconds, energy at 69 – still weak. That window is tiny; the rest of that day and the following days go right back to poor. For a beginner spot like this, even that morning is pretty marginal.
The break itself is fairly consistent normally, so it tends not to stay this flat for long – forecasts can change. But for now, save your wax and wait for a better run.
Over and out – Rusty.
