Alright, let me break it down for Lesconil. Gotta be honest, it’s gonna be a long wait before there’s anything worth paddling out for.
For the first week, from Saturday the 11th through Saturday the 18th, it’s just dead. Swell is tiny—under 2 ft to about 2 ft—with weak energy (between 14 and 98). Winds come from every direction, sometimes glassy, sometimes onshore, but the waves are too small and weak to even bother. That's a full week of nothing.
The first sign of life comes Sunday the 19th of July. The morning has about 3 ft from the WNW, period around 7 seconds, and energy climbs to 109 (moderate). Wind is cross-off from the NNE at 18 mph, keeping it clean. Still, the surf is rated poor. The afternoon picks up to 4 ft from the WNW, still short period at 7 seconds, energy at 180, with lighter cross-off winds at 15 mph. Clean, but those short-period waves will be a bit mushy and fat.
Monday the 20th is similar: 4 ft from the NW, 8-second period in the morning, energy at 136, cross-off winds. Afternoon stays at 4 ft from NW, period dropping to 7 seconds, energy at 142. Clean but average.
Now, the one to circle is Saturday the 26th of July. This is almost two weeks out, so treat it as promising but not locked in. The morning has 5 ft swell from the W with a 10-second period, energy at 432 (moderate to strong). Winds are cross-off from the WNW at 12 mph, giving you clean faces. For Lesconil—a beach and reef spot exposed to the swell—that WNW direction is ideal. The size is solid for the confident surfer; beginners will find it a bit much. With a 10-second period, you get proper groundswell with decent shape and a natural lull between sets, making the paddle out easier. Expect crowds, because she’ll be packed.
Don’t get too excited about Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th. Friday brings 7 ft to 8 ft from the WNW, but it’s flagged as too big for the break. Afternoon has 8 ft, 9-second period, energy at 1041, but cross-on winds make it choppy. Saturday the 25th morning sees 8 ft from the WNW with a very long 12-second period, energy at 1513, still too big. Even Saturday afternoon with 7 ft from WNW, 11-second period, and clean cross-off winds—that long period will make it break straight and close out at this spot. Expert-only territory.
So, if you can wait, Saturday the 26th of July is your window. Everything else is either flat or too much of a handful.

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.
