The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve scanned the charts for our little corner of the Med, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it—this 16-day stretch is a tough one for surfers. The honest truth is there’s almost nothing on the menu worth paddling out for. The first actual surfable moment doesn’t show up until Saturday morning, July 25th, and even then, it’s a one-star affair. We’ve got a long, quiet gap right from the start. The first few days are a write-off—Tuesday the 21st through Friday the 24th are all poor, with tiny windswell or no swell at all, choppy onshore conditions, and zero energy. It’s a bleak run.
The only real glimmer in the whole outlook is the morning of Saturday, July 25th, at Lakouvardos. The wind goes glassy—dead calm from the ENE at just 3 mph—and the water is like a mirror. The swell is a modest 3 ft from the NW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is weak at 54. It’s surfable, but just barely. The break is exposed to the swell, and the optimum direction is WSW, so the NW swell isn’t a perfect match. It’s inconsistent, and crowds are *sometimes* a problem. Still, if you’re desperate for a paddle, this is the only window with clean conditions. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
The next and last chance comes on Friday morning, July 31st. Another glassy morning, with NNE wind at 3 mph. The swell is again 3 ft from the NW, period 7 seconds, and the combined energy bumps up to a moderate 108. It’s still described as “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” The same caveats apply: inconsistent, not the best direction, and it’s a tiny wave. After that, the forecast drops back into flat, poor conditions through the first week of August.
So, to put it bluntly: there’s no standout here. The best on offer is the morning of July 25th, and maybe the morning of July 31st, but both are small, weak, and inconsistent. If you’re a beginner, the 3 ft swell is fine, but there’s not enough push to get excited about. For a more experienced surfer, it’s a skunk session. The area can go through blank runs like this, so it’s not abnormal. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because it tends not to stay this poor for long.
Rusty.
