The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a slow start, a solid middle section, and then a long, quiet fade-out. No absolute belters, but there’s one morning that’s worth setting your alarm for.
First up, Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th are a write-off. Small, rubbish, onshore slop. Don’t bother. Sunday the 26th morning shows a glassy 3ft wave, but it’s just ordinary. The action starts to pick up Monday the 27th morning. That’s when a clean, cross-offshore NE breeze hits a 5ft NW swell running at 10 seconds. The energy jumps to moderate (425) and the waves clean up nicely. That’s your first real chance. Tuesday the 28th morning is also a beauty at La Paloma: glassy, 4ft, good period, and clean. Good session.
The real standout, the one I’m most excited about, is Saturday the 1st of August morning. Glassy conditions, light NE breeze, and a building 4ft NW groundswell with a 11-second period. The energy is strong (326) and the glassy surface will mean long, silky lines. That’s the pick of the run. The afternoon gets a bit bigger with a 5ft swell, but the wind goes cross-shore and the conditions get a bit lumpy. Sunday the 2nd keeps that energy pumping (strong, 981 in the afternoon) with 6ft swell, but again, cross-shore wind and some chop.
Monday the 3rd of August morning is another good look: clean, cross-offshore ENE breeze, 6ft swell, and good period. That’s a solid session for keen intermediates. After that, the swell dries up fast. Tuesday the 4th right through to the end is mostly small, weak, and glassy mornings with tiny waves, or poor conditions. The energy drops right off (values under 130) and the period shortens. The second week has a long gap of several days with nothing much to offer.
So, the standout is Saturday the 1st of August morning. La Paloma will be the spot. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 68°, so it’s a welcome feel. The swell is from the NW, which is the optimum direction for this break, and with glassy wind and a long period, expect long, clean waves. There’s plenty of swell energy, but the spot is very consistent, so it can get crowded. Get in early for the best of it.
Rusty.

Information about the La Paloma Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Paloma provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Paloma can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Paloma 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 (La Paloma) 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 La Paloma 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.
