The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cooking for Laniakea Reef and Holtons over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we've got a bit of a flat spell to get through. The first real surfable energy doesn't show up until Saturday the 12th, and even then it's pretty ordinary. For the most part, the first week is a write-off. We're looking at weak, small swell with cross-off winds. Not much to get excited about.
The standout, and really the only decent window in this whole 16-day stretch, arrives on Tuesday the 15th in the morning. That's your pick of the period. We've got a long-period groundswell, 16 seconds, coming from the SW. The combined energy of all swells directed here is a solid moderate (296), with the water temp sitting at a comfortable 80°, which is pretty average for this time of year. That SW direction is just about ideal for the break, and the wind is a light, cross-off offshore breeze at 9 mph, keeping things clean. Expect clean, well-shaped lines, but if you're a beginner, the size is manageable around 2 ft. Be aware this spot can get crowded sometimes. It may not be huge, but for quality, this is as good as it gets.
The following week, from the 17th onward, it's back to small, messy conditions with moderate breezes and mostly poor surf. There is a flicker on Thursday the 24th, with a SW groundswell bringing moderate energy (252), but the forecast is marginal and questionable, so don't bank on it. Overall, it's a tough outlook unless you're willing to wait for that Tuesday morning window.
Rusty.
