The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks at Jameos del Agua (Lanzarote).
Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – it's a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim. We’re staring down the barrel of a long dry spell with barely a sniff of something rideable. For the first full week, from Sunday the 26th of July right through to Saturday the 1st of August, it’s a total write-off. The wind is howling from the north and northeast, smashing the place with a strong cross-shore breeze that's just churning the ocean into a lumpy, cross-chop mess. The wave energy is moderate (values between 145 and 882), but it’s all short-period, weak windswell that’s just getting chopped to bits. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.
The first glimpse of hope comes on Sunday, the 2nd of August. The wind finally eases a bit, swinging to a cross-offshore from the NNW at 12 mph. The swell is still short and small at 5 ft from the north, but the clean conditions will make it look a lot better than anything we’ve seen. The energy is still moderate (289 in the morning, 329 in the afternoon). It’s a marginal call, but if you’re desperate for a paddle, this is the only window that’s even close to being surfable. Expect a few clean, if weak, waves.
Then it’s back to the grind. From Monday the 3rd of August onwards, the wind picks up again, staying strong and cross-shore or cross-onshore for the rest of the forecast. The swell actually gets bigger, hitting 8 ft on Monday morning and again on Wednesday the 5th, but it’s completely unsurfable with that fresh breeze ruining the surface. The wave energy gets strong (up to 902 on the 6th of August), but it’s all messy power with no shape. This is the kind of setup that’s more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddle guys.
So, to sum it up: there’s one standout, and it’s the morning of Sunday, the 2nd of August. Get out there early for a clean, small session before the wind ruins it again. After that, it’s a long wait with no real promise. A blank run like this is a tough one, but forecasts can change.
Rusty.
