The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the first week is a proper bummer. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak surf with very little energy. The water temperature at Lesconil is sitting at 69°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath, but you won’t be doing much surfing in it just yet.
The first real glimmer of something worth getting wet for doesn’t show up until Sunday, July 26th. It’s still marginal, but we finally see a pulse of swell. The morning brings a WnW swell at 5 ft with a period of 7 seconds, but the combined energy is moderate (210). The afternoon cleans up nicely with a fresh offshore wind from the NW, making it glassy. You’ll be scratching for waves, but it’s a start.
The standout of the whole run is Monday, July 27th. That morning is your best bet. We’ve got a solid 4 ft WnW swell with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (257). The wind is a light offshore from the NW – that’s a clean, lined-up look for Lesconil. This is the one session you want to pencil in. The afternoon gets windy again, so stick to the early.
After that, the swell drops right back off. Tuesday the 28th through to the end of the run is mostly flat or tiny. A brief bump shows up on Wednesday, August 5th, with a 4 ft W swell and 7-second period, giving moderate energy (123). But the wind is a bit messy, and it’s a long way out, so treat that as a promising but uncertain possibility.
Honestly, for this stretch, if you’re not on it Monday morning the 27th, you’re probably better off waiting for the next proper system. The breaks are mostly exposed, but the swell direction (WnW) is just off the optimum for Lesconil (WSW), and the consistency is very good here, but the size just isn’t there for most of the window.
Keep your eyes on the horizon, and check back in a few days. The forecasts can change, and it never stays flat for long around here.
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.
