The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on the table for this spot.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days don’t have a single session that’s really worth paddling out for. We’ve got swell, sure, but the wind is just relentless – it’s almost always cross or cross-on, and it’s fresh to strong, which means the surface is going to be lumpy, choppy, or messy. The water is sitting at 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s one nice thing about the first few days.
Starting Tuesday the 14th, we’ve got tiny 3ft to 2ft NNW swell with a short period of 8 seconds, combined energy is weak (93), and it’s cross-on from the NE at 12 to 16 mph. Just not worth it. Wednesday the 15th isn’t any better – 4ft, period drops to 5 seconds, still cross-on, and the energy is still low (78). Thursday the 16th sees a bit more size at 5ft and energy climbs to 227, but it’s fresh cross-on or cross wind, so the quality is going to be poor.
The whole run from the 14th right through to the 29th of July is plagued by this pattern. The swell actually gets decently chunky for the area – we’re looking at 6ft to 8ft from the 17th through to the 26th, with combined energy values hitting 476, 541, 726, even 680. That’s moderate to strong energy. But it’s all coming from the NNE or N, and the wind is either cross or cross-on from the N or NNE, blowing 16 to 22 mph. There’s no clean offshore, no glassy windows. The period is mostly short, between 7 and 8 seconds, so it’s windswell, not groundswell.
This setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, honestly. The cross-shore winds and lumpy conditions will be a headache on a surfboard.
The one thing that looks a little different is the very end of the forecast. On Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th, the wind cranks up to 25 mph from the NNE, the swell drops to 3ft to 4ft, and the period actually stretches to 9-10 seconds. That’s a longer period, but the wind is so strong it’s messy. Not a goer.
So, the long and short of it: no standout days, no hidden gems. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for decent surf. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d find something else to do.
