The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's run through the same outlook in feet and knots.
It’s a grim stretch for Lakouvardos. We’re looking at a long, drawn-out lull. Days and days of tiny, messy, or flat conditions. The water is 83°, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing going for us.
Friday the 14th starts with almost nothing – just 0.3ft of NW windswell. The energy is a pathetic 2. It’s clean in the morning, but the swell is so small it’s not worth the wetsuit. This pattern of ankle-biters and onshore junk drags on through the following week. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, with occasional onshore slop. We see a tiny spike of 2ft on the morning of Friday the 21st and again on the 22nd, with the energy hitting a paltry 12, but it’s still a messy, short-period windswell.
The real hope, if you can call it that, arrives on Monday the 24th. The morning sees a pulse of 3ft from the NW, with a period of 5 seconds and a combined energy of 55. It’s still a short-period swell, and the wind is a moderate cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy. This is the biggest we’ll see, but it’s hardly a classic. It’s an inconsistent break at the best of times, and this isn’t the best of times.
The best on offer across the whole 16 days is the morning of Friday the 28th. The swell picks up to 4ft from the NW, with a period of 6 seconds and the combined energy hits a moderate 120. The wind is a gentle cross-shore from the NNW, which should keep the surface clean. It’s still not a huge swell, and the short period means it won’t have much grunt, but it’s the cleanest and most energetic window we’ve got. The water is still warm, so it’s not all bad. Just remember, this is a spot that rarely breaks, and you might have company as crowds here are possible.
For the rest of the run, the energy is weak, the swell is tiny, and the wind is often messy. It’s a real flat spell.
Rusty.

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