The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s size up Lesconil for the next couple of weeks.
First off, it’s a slow start. The first day with anything surfable is Monday the 10th, and it’s nothing to write home about – just a 2ft swell from the WNW with light offshore wind. It’s clean, but the energy is weak. Tuesday the 11th is a no-go with onshore wind. Wednesday the 12th is a little better with a 3ft west swell and clean cross-offshore wind, but it’s still ordinary.
The one real standout is Thursday the 13th. The morning is glassy – dead calm from the NW – with a solid 4ft west groundswell rolling in on a 10-second period. That’s your best session. The energy is up to 308, a solid moderate push. The water temp is 65°, which is about normal for this time of year. Afternoon gets a fresh offshore breeze, so it’ll still be clean but a bit windier, with the swell dropping to 4ft.
After the 13th, it’s back to small, ordinary waves. The 14th through the 16th offer 3ft to 3ft west swell with clean but unexciting conditions. The 17th bumps up to 4ft again but with a fresh 22 mph offshore wind, making it feel blown-out. The 18th has a glassy morning but only 2ft of swell.
The final days from the 19th to the 21st are poor – tiny swell, short periods, and wind that’s either cross-offshore or fresh offshore. Not worth paddling out.
Bottom line: Clear your schedule for Thursday morning the 13th. That glassy 4ft west groundswell at Lesconil is the best you’ll see. The rest of the fortnight is a grind of small, clean but weak waves. Keep your expectations low.
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.
