Lesconil Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab your stick and let’s have a look at the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a mixed bag for us here at Lesconil, but there are a few windows to keep an eye on. The water’s sitting at 65°, which is right about where we’d expect for this time of year.

To start, we’ve got a couple of small, weak days. Wednesday afternoon will see a clean but weak 5ft of west swell, but the energy’s only moderate (227) and the wind, while offshore, is a bit blustery at 16 mph. It’s not going to be a classic, but it’s surfable for a beginner on the inside. Thursday morning drops right off to a weak 3ft from the west-northwest. The wind goes light and offshore, glassy, but there’s just not a lot of push behind it. The energy is weak (80). It will be a knee-high sort of day unless you’ve got a longboard and a good attitude.

Then we hit a flat, poor spell. From Thursday afternoon right through to Monday, it’s mostly tiny, onshore, and messy. A couple of mornings might offer a clean 2ft to 2ft, but the energy is weak and the swell direction is all over the place. Honestly, this is the kind of stretch where you’re better off doing something else.

Things start to look a bit more interesting on Tuesday the 12th. The morning brings a clean, cross-offshore 3ft from the west, with the energy picking up to a moderate 128. It’s still small, but there’s a bit more life in it. Wednesday the 13th morning is similar, with a clean 3ft (162 energy). Then, Thursday the 14th is where it starts to get proper. The morning is looking like the standout of the week: a clean 4ft of west swell with a gentle offshore breeze. The energy is solidly moderate at 258. This is the one to circle on the calendar. It won’t be giant, but the conditions should be clean and fun, a proper surfable day.

The forecast for the 14th afternoon is still a decent 5ft, but the wind is fresh offshore and the tide might make it a bit tricky. It’s promising but not as good as the morning.

After that, the wheels come off a little. We’ve got a poor, choppy weekend from the 15th to the 17th. Southerly winds and lumpy conditions will spoil any of the small swell that’s around. The energy does pick up a bit on the 16th, but it’s in the wrong wind. Not worth the paddle.

The last week is pretty quiet. There’s a small window on Tuesday the 19th morning with a clean 3ft (120 energy), but it’s ordinary. After that, it’s small and flat until the end of the period. So, keep your eyes peeled for that Thursday morning on the 14th. That’s our best bet for a proper surf in the next couple of weeks.

So, in short: it's a lean spell with one decent morning on the 14th. Make the most of it if you can.
