Table - best surf conditions forecast for Laniakea Reef and Holtons over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's look at this in feet and miles. It's a grim outlook for Laniakea Reef and Holtons for the next 16 days. The whole thing is a flat, boring stretch with no real surf to speak of.
Water temp is about 79°, which is normal for the season, so at least the water feels good while you're bobbing around on nothing.
Starting Thursday, July 9th, we're looking at waves around 0.6 ft from the west, with a 14-second period. The energy is a weak 21. The wind is a cross-off from the ENE, so it's clean, but there's just no push. This flat, clean pattern holds through the weekend.
Monday, July 13th, afternoon brings a slight bump to 2 ft from the SW, with a 14-second period and energy of 218 (moderate). The cross-off wind is still there, but the waves are still tiny. It's marginal.
Tuesday, July 14th, has a morning pulse of 4 ft from the NE, but with a short 8-second period and rain. The energy is 390 (moderate), but it's a weak, messy wind swell. Not worth it.
The rest of the week is mostly 2 ft to 2 ft waves from the west. Clean, but flat. The following week is even worse, with many days showing zero swell or waves under 1 ft.
There's a tiny spike on Monday, July 20th, with a 3 ft swell from the NNE, but it's an 8-second wind swell with weak energy. Gone by the afternoon.
For a spot that's a consistent reef, this is a total bust. No standouts at all. It's a better day for a paddleboard than a surfboard. Just wait for the next proper swell.
