The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. We’re looking at a pretty slow start to the week. Tuesday’s flat and weak, nothing to get wet for. We’ll have a few days of small surf until things finally wake up.
The first decent pulse hits Wednesday morning, with 5ft of south-southeast swell at a 10-second interval. The water’s got some energy on it, and we’ll have light offshore winds keeping it clean. It’s going to be a madhouse out there, though – this break is a rare one and everyone knows it. You’ll have company, that’s for sure. Water temp’s 66°F, which is pretty typical for this time of year.
Thursday is a flat-out no-go. Those 15 mph cross-onshore winds from the north-northwest are going to shred it. Friday morning drops to 2ft. Too small to be worth it, even with clean winds. Saturday’s the same story.
But hold on – Sunday morning things start shifting. A new south swell comes in at 6ft with a short 8-second period, and we’ve got light offshore winds. It’s surfable, for sure. Then, Sunday afternoon – this is it. The swell jumps to nearly 7ft with a 10-second period, and the energy is pumping. Offshore winds are up a bit, but it’s going to be firing. This is your window. It’s a point break, and that period is ideal for it. But fair warning – at 7ft, this is not for the faint-hearted. This one’s for the experienced chargers only. For everyone else, this is a spectator day.
Monday stays strong, with 5-6ft of clean south swell and light winds in the morning. Tuesday keeps the quality, 5ft with a nice long 12-second groundswell and gentle offshore breeze. Long, lined-up waves, the kind you dream about. It’s all there.
Wednesday’s still okay, but it’s on the way down. 4-4ft, but the afternoon wind gets weird and we might see some light rain. Thursday is blown out again – 20 mph cross-onshore from the northeast. Just forget it. Friday’s only for the stubborn, with a messy cross-onshore breeze.
Now the second week starts to lose its punch. Saturday morning looks glassy though – 5ft of south swell and absolutely no wind. If you’re quick, you could score a clean one. Sunday morning has that same glassy texture, 4ft, clean, but it’s smaller. By Monday and Tuesday, it’s down to 4ft, and while we’ll have a fresh offshore wind, it’s small and a bit more challenging.
The final few days are basically done. The swell is just a memory, and the winds are all over the place. It’s a good thing that first week delivered, because this 16-day outlook definitely runs out of steam.
Bottom line: Your best bet is Sunday afternoon, the 6th. That’s the standout. And if you miss that, Monday and Tuesday of next week are still very much worth your time. Mark it on your calendar and get after it.
