The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here.
It's been a bit of a rough run at our main spot, Lagide. The surf's been pretty ordinary for a while, but there are a couple of windows that look promising if you're patient.
The first few days are a write-off. Saturday and Sunday are a mess with strong, onshore winds and a fair bit of swell – nothing you'd want to paddle out into. The combined swell energy is sitting in the moderate range (206 to 405), but it's all chopped up. Not worth it.
Monday morning, the 27th of July, sees the wind drop to glassy, which is a major positive. The swell drops to 4ft from the NNW, but it's a short period at 7 seconds, so it won't have much push. The combined energy is moderate (250), and the conditions are just described as "surfable but very ordinary." It's a slight improvement, but nothing to get excited about.
The highlight of the whole forecast lands on the morning of the 31st of July. We get a clean, glassy start to the day. The swell is a tidy 4ft from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, giving it a bit more shape. The combined energy is moderate but solid at 303. This is the session to aim for. The offshore direction is ideal for the break, and it's going to be clean. The calm conditions will make for a much better experience than what we've been seeing.
The 1st of August also looks good in the morning. Another glassy start with a 4ft swell from the WNW. A bit smaller, but still clean. The first of the month is a solid backup.
After that, the second week turns messy again. The 2nd of August brings a bigger, lumpy 6ft swell from the NNW, but it's onshore and short-period. The combined energy is strong (518), but the quality is poor, making it more of a challenge than a treat. The 5th of August morning has a window of glassy conditions and a 3ft swell from the WNW, but it's small. The rest of the week is a mix of cross-onshore winds and small, weak swells. The best bet for the second week is that glassy morning on the 5th, but it's a long way out and the swell is small, so don't bank on it.
Overall, you've got one clear standout: the 31st of July. The 1st of August is a good backup. The rest of the week is a gamble. If you're looking for a solid session, that's your window.
Rusty.

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