Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lawrencetown Left Point over the next 16 days.
G’day, it’s Rusty here. We’ve got a pretty bleak stretch ahead for Lawrencetown Left Point – a real waiting game for the next two weeks. The forecast starts with a gap, as there’s barely any surf worth talking about for the first few days. The water temp is sitting at 56°, which is about normal for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.
The first possible session is on Saturday morning, July 11th, and it’s tiny. You’re looking at a weak 2 ft swell from the ESE, with a light offshore breeze from the NNW. The combined energy is a paltry 77, so it’s barely enough to get you wet. It’s clean, but honestly, it’s more of a paddle than a surf. That little window of glassy conditions on Sunday afternoon, July 12th, with 2 ft from the SSW and a glassy wind, is about as good as it gets in the first week – but it’s still very ordinary.
The true standout comes much later, on Sunday, July 19th. The morning shows a monster 10 ft swell from the SSE, with a light cross-offshore breeze from the WNW. The combined energy is a massive 1471, so there’s serious power in the water. But here’s the catch – at that size, it’s well over the 8 ft mark, so this is experts-only territory. The reef and point setup will handle the long period groundswell (8 seconds) better than a beach break, but it’s still going to be a heavy, demanding session. If you’re not dialed in, give it a miss. The afternoon drops to 7 ft from the S with a glassy cross-shore, but the tide conditions are questionable, so it’s not as clean.
Between now and that big Sunday, there are long gaps of nothing. After the 19th, it trails off quickly into small, choppy junk again. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal for the area. Don’t get your hopes up until the second week, and even then, keep an eye on the forecasts – they can change.
Rusty.
