The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Lesconil over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, straight off the bat, there’s a bit of a slow start. We’ve got a gap of nearly two days before any real surf shows up. Saturday the 25th is a total write-off with that fresh offshore wind blowing like mad, but no swell at all – zero energy. But hang tight, because things start to perk up.

Sunday the 26th brings the first proper waves. We’re looking at a clean 4ft to 5ft swell from the WNW, but it’s a bit short-period at 7 seconds, so it’s not going to have much punch. The wind is fresh offshore or cross-off, so the surface will be clean, but the quality is just okay. The combined energy is moderate (167 to 280), so it’s surfable, but not a standout.

The real gem of this first week is Monday morning, July 27th. We’ve got a 5ft groundswell from the WNW, period bumping up to 9 seconds, and the wind is a light offshore from the NW at only 6 mph. That’s clean, glassy conditions. The energy is building nicely (340) and the water temp is sitting at 68°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. This is your session if you’re a beginner or just want a fun, easy-going wave. The afternoon gets a bit windier and messier, so get on it early.

Tuesday and Wednesday the 28th and 29th drop right off. We’re talking small, weak swell (2ft to 3ft) with onshore or cross-onshore winds. The energy drops to weak levels (below 100). It’s not worth paddling out for.

We drift through a flat spell right into the start of August. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st offer tiny, weak waves (2ft to 3ft) again – surfable if you’re desperate, but nothing to write home about.

Then, hold onto your board. Sunday, August 2nd is the big one. We’ve got a 7ft to 7ft swell from the W, with a 9 to 10 second period. The combined energy is strong (623 to 1048). This is a serious, powerful groundswell. However, the forecast says it might be too big for this break. At 7ft, this is definitely crossing into expert territory. The wind is a moderate cross-offshore, so the surface will be clean. But that kind of size at Lesconil, a beach and reef setup, is going to be a beast. It’s likely more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing unless you’re a seasoned charger. Consider this a promising but challenging option for the experts.

Monday morning, August 3rd, offers a nice reset. The swell drops back to 4ft from the WNW, period 9 seconds, and the wind goes completely glassy. That’s a beautiful, clean morning session. The energy is moderate (263). This is the best on offer for the average surfer in the second week.

After that, the outlook falls apart again. We get a run of weak, small, or windy days from the 4th to the 7th of August. The swell is tiny (1ft to 4ft) and the wind is often cross-off or offshore, but the energy is weak. Saturday the 8th shows another spike of 7ft from the W (energy 510), but again, it’s flagged as potentially too big for the break. Sunday the 9th is a bit smaller at 5ft, but the wind is strong offshore at 25 mph, making it tough to paddle into.

So, the standout sessions are Monday morning July 27th for a clean, fun wave, and Sunday August 2nd for the big, powerful swell for experts only. The rest of the window is mostly small, weak, or blown out.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
