The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 68°, so that's a nice little bonus.
Right, the early part of the week is a bit of a slow burner. We’ve got a bit of a pulse coming through on Monday the 27th. The morning looks tidy with a clean 5ft swell out of the WNW, a gentle offshore breeze from the NW, and the combined energy is a solid moderate 348. It's not a monster, but it's clean and very consistent, making it a good one for the beginners to get a few. The afternoon stays clean but the wind picks up, so it'll be a bit more of a handful.
Tuesday the 28th is a write-off with cross-onshore winds, and Wednesday the 29th through to the weekend is just small, weak, and ordinary. You're looking at ankle to knee-high dribble with combined energy barely breaking 100. Not worth the rubber.
The next real glimmer of hope is Saturday the 8th of August. The morning brings a clean 5ft swell from the west, with a gentle breeze and moderate combined energy of 355. It's a standout for that week, a solid, clean, consistent day for anyone itching for a paddle.
But the real standout of the whole forecast is Sunday the 9th of August. The morning session is a beast. We’re looking at a 7ft swell from the WNW, and the combined energy is a massive 1352. That is strong to very strong wave energy. The wind is light and offshore, so it will be clean. Now, this is serious. At 7ft, this is for experts only. It’s going to be a big, powerful day. The swell period is a moderate 9 seconds, so it won't be a drawn-out groundswell, but with that much energy, it's going to be a proper challenge. The afternoon drops to a more manageable 5ft, but still a solid session.
The following Monday the 10th kicks off the week with a clean 5ft morning, but the wind starts to get up again. After that, the forecast drops off into small, choppy, and generally poor conditions for the rest of the window.
Overall, the first week is a frustrating slog for the most part, but the 8th and especially the 9th of August are the ones to circle on the calendar. If you're good enough, the 9th morning is going to be a proper experience.
Rusty.

Information about the Lesconil Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Lesconil provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lesconil can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lesconil surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Lesconil) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Lesconil may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
