Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lesconil over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a good look at what Lesconil's got cookin' for us over the next couple of weeks.
Overall, it's a tale of two halves. For the first 12 days, this is about as flat and uninspiring as it gets. A real bummer. We're looking at a solid stretch of tiny, weak surf that just won't fire. But hang in there, because the second half of the outlook has a pulse. It's not a classic, but there's finally some waist-high energy showing up.
Water temp is sitting at a very pleasant 66° at the start, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – always a bonus when you're in a wetsuit.
Kicking off on Friday the 10th, we've got a tiny 3ft swell from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds and weak energy (119). It's cross-offshore, but the file tells me the surf quality is poor, so don't get your hopes up. Saturday the 11th is even smaller – 2ft and 2ft – with cross-onshore wind, making for choppy conditions. This sad little pattern just keeps on trucking. Sunday the 12th is lumpy and onshore, Monday the 13th has a glassy 2ft, but it's from the SW with a short 6-second period and a combined energy of only 46 – basically a lake. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday... it’s all the same story. Tiny waves from the 0.7ft to 2ft range, with weak energy, and even though we get some glassy moments (like Monday morning the 20th with calm wind and 2ft), the swell just isn't there to support a wave. It’s a solid two-week gap of flatness for any real surf.
Now, right at the tail end of the forecast, things finally change. On Thursday the 23rd of July, it’s a different story. For the first time in a fortnight, we have a decent signal. The morning session at Lesconil shows a clean 4ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 9 seconds and moderate energy in the 271 range. The wind is a clean cross-offshore breeze, and the file even says to expect good surf conditions. This is our one and only standout. The swell direction (WNW) matches the optimum direction for the break perfectly. Keep in mind, at 4ft, it’s a fun, manageable size for most, but not too big for beginners. A real glimmer of hope, but don't sleep on it.
After that, Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th are marginal, with 4ft to 4ft swells, but the wind turns cross or cross-off and the surf quality gets a downgrade. The window is definitely that Thursday morning.
So, to wrap it up: expect a long, long wait for almost two full weeks. Then, circle Thursday the 23rd of July on your calendar. That's your best and really only shot at a proper session in this outlook. Get on it.
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.
