The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at Jameos del Agua (Lanzarote) are looking pretty grim for surf. This is a reef break that's fairly consistent but the wind and conditions are just not playing ball. We’re staring down a long stretch of poor conditions, starting from now, Sunday the 26th of July, and it doesn’t really let up.
The first real chance of anything decent comes on Saturday the 1st of August morning. I see a little glimmer there – moderate cross-offshore wind, the sea state is described as clean, and we’ve got a 5ft swell from the NNE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined wave energy is moderate at 276, but honestly, it’s a marginal call. The water temp is about average for the time of year at 72°, no big anomaly there, so you won't need a thick suit.
That little window on Saturday morning is the only flicker of hope in the first week. After that, it’s back to a grind of fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy cross-chop from the 2nd of August all the way through to the 8th of August. Swell sizes bob around between 4ft and 8ft, but the wind is just constantly messing it up – mostly cross-shore with that onshore chop.
Now, if you’re an expert and you’re willing to battle some messy conditions, there’s a bigger pulse showing up for Sunday the 9th of August morning. We've got a 10ft swell from the NNE with a 9-second period. The combined energy is strong at 1471. That’s a lot of water moving around. However, the wind is still cross-shore at 19 mph, so it’s going to be lumpy and challenging. This is only for experienced surfers – that size can get heavy on a reef, especially when it’s not super clean. The period is on the shorter side too, so expect it to be a bit walled up and less forgiving.
To be honest, the whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off for clean, fun waves. If you’re a kite surfer, the strong cross-shore winds and sizeable chop might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, there’s really only that one marginal window on Saturday morning, 1st of August, that’s worth a look. Keep your eye on the forecasts – things can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
