The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Lawrencetown Left Point.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this 16-day run is a real mixed bag. We’ve got a tricky little reef and point break that’s exposed to the swell, but it’s inconsistent, and the crowds can show up. The water is running about 54°, which is a full 6° colder than normal for this time of year. That’s a very unusual chill, so you’ll be wanting a thick wetsuit.
The first real flicker of hope comes on Tuesday morning, July 28th. The swell is a modest 3 ft out of the south, with a period of 8 seconds, so it’s a short-period windswell. The combined energy is moderate (215). But the real story here is the wind: it’s glassy. Dead flat, no wind. That’s a major positive for a spot that can get messy. It’ll be clean, but with a short period like that, the waves won’t have much grunt.
Then we hit a long, frustrating gap. The next few days are just onshore junk and poor conditions. It’s a real desert out there.
Wednesday afternoon, August 5th is one to circle on the calendar. We’ve got 3 ft of swell from the east-southeast, 8-second period, with a moderate combined energy (212). The wind goes light offshore from the north at 9 mph. That’s clean, groomed faces. This is a proper standout for the window. It’s not huge, but it’s the kind of session where you can actually enjoy the ride without getting chopped up.
Then another gap. The next potential is Saturday morning, August 8th. Swell is 4 ft from the east-southeast, 9-second period, with a moderate combined energy (256). The wind is a light cross-off from the north-northeast. Clean again. The waves have a touch more period, so they’ll have a bit more shape.
Don’t expect much after that. The run fades into small, weak, and onshore. The last week of the forecast is pretty much a bust.
So, for the best bet: Wednesday afternoon, August 5th is the one. Clean offshore wind, fun-sized swell. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the standout of the whole period.
Rusty.
