The Lowdown

Alright, let's break it down for the home crowd. Over the next couple of weeks, it's gonna be a tough watch for the most part. We've got about ten days of pretty much nothing worth paddling out for, from now until the end of July. The ocean temp is roughly 74°, a hair above average, so the water feels nice even if the waves don't.

The first real chance to get wet comes on Wednesday, July 31st at Jenkinsons (Point Pleasant Beach). A little 3ft SSE swell shows up, but with a short 8-second period. The combined energy is a weak 104, so it's not a powerhouse. The wind will be blowing offshore from the WNW at 12 mph, which will clean up the surface. It's just barely surfable.

The standout, and really the only decent option in the whole stretch, lands on Sunday, August 2nd. The morning brings the biggest swell of the run at 4ft from the SSE. Still a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 191, the strongest we see. The wind is light offshore from the W at 9 mph, making for some clean, if not spectacular, waves. The afternoon holds up with 4ft and clean conditions. This spot is for the advanced crew, and it sees folks pretty often, so don't expect to have it to yourself.

Beyond that, it's back to tiny, weak slop with crummy winds. Not much to write home about.
