The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here again, switching over for those who think in feet and miles. The next couple of weeks around Hotel Novotel are looking pretty grim for a decent surf.
From Friday the 31st of July, we’ve got a weak, short-period east swell running about 5 feet, but the wind is cross and it’s all chopped up. The combined swell energy is weak at 291. Water temp is 84°, which is normal for this time of year. The whole first week is filled with cross and cross-onshore winds, and the swell never cleans up. By Tuesday the 4th of August, the swell drops to about 2 feet and the energy sinks to 65. It’s flat and ugly.
There’s a long dry spell. The only real, half-decent window shows up on Tuesday the 11th of August in the morning. The swell bumps to around 5 feet from the east, with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind switches to cross-offshore, giving us clean waves. The combined energy hits 294 – moderate but not epic. The call is “marginal,” so don’t expect perfection. This is the only standout in the whole 16 days. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, fairly consistent, but plan on sharing the water because crowds are common.
After that Tuesday morning, it’s back to poor surf with cross winds and chop through to Saturday the 15th of August. No other real highlights. If you’ve got the itch, the 11th morning is your chance, but keep your expectations in check.
Rusty.
