Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming our way for the next couple of weeks.

Right now, it’s a pretty bleak start. Kilcummin Harbour is just not doing anything for us. The energy is weak, the winds are messy, and the swell is tiny. Honestly, for the first week, you’re looking at a long, flat spell. There is nothing worth paddling out for from the 11th right through to the 19th. The wave heights barely tickle 2 feet, and the wind is constantly on it or cross-shore, just chopping everything up. You’d be wasting your time.

We finally get a little glimmer on the 20th – Monday morning has a clean offshore wind with a small 2ft swell, but it’s weak and not really worth getting excited about.

The real standout of the whole outlook, the one you should circle on your calendar, is Tuesday the 21st. The morning session at Kilcummin Harbour is looking like the best of the lot. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell from the west rolling in with a light offshore wind from the south-southwest. The wave energy is solid at (429), and with those clean conditions, the waves should have some real push to them. It’s intermediate-friendly at that size. The afternoon gets a bit too chunky and cross-shore, so get it early.

A little further out, the morning of Saturday the 25th is worth a mention. A bigger 8ft swell from the north-west with a clean offshore from the south. That’s proper size – only for experienced surfers though. The energy is substantial too, coming in at (492). It’s a bit of a long-range call, so don’t lock it in just yet, but it has potential.

Overall, it’s a tough start. Be patient, wait for that 21st, and maybe keep an eye on the 25th. The water temperature is about average for this time of year at 59° covering the first recommended spot.

Rusty.

Information about the Kilcummin Harbour Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Kilcummin Harbour provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Kilcummin Harbour can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Kilcummin Harbour surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Kilcummin Harbour) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Kilcummin Harbour may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
