The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what the ocean’s got cooking for us at Liencres over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, it’s a bit of a slow start. The first few days are pretty average, with small, weak swells and not much to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

Saturday afternoon (22 August) kicks things off with a 3ft NW swell, but it’s got a cross-offshore wind and only moderate energy (131). It’s clean, but the surf is poor. Sunday morning (23 August) sees a drop to 3ft from the NE, with a light breeze and clean conditions, but again, it’s very ordinary. The energy is weak (81). Monday through to Thursday (24-27 August) are mostly poor, with tiny waves, onshore winds, and very low energy. There’s a brief moment Wednesday morning (26 August) with glassy conditions and a 1ft NW swell, but it’s still very small. Not worth paddling out for.

Then things start to shift. Friday morning (28 August) is the first real standout. The swell jumps to 7ft from the NW with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is strong at 819. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so it’s clean. But here’s the thing – at 7ft, this is getting big for Liencres. It’s really only for experienced surfers. Beginners, sit this one out. The afternoon turns onshore and choppy, so get it early.

Saturday morning (29 August) is still solid with 5ft NW swell and moderate energy (337), but the wind is cross-onshore, making it messy. Sunday morning (30 August) sees a drop to 3ft, glassy conditions, and clean surf, but the energy is moderate (182). Monday morning (31 August) is glassy again with a 3ft NW swell and calm winds, but it’s still small. Not a standout.

The next real highlight comes on Saturday morning, 5 September. This is the best on offer. The swell builds to 6ft from the NW with a long period of 13 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. The combined energy is strong at 924. It’s glassy, with light offshore winds from the SE. This is going to be clean and powerful. The long period means it’ll be better shaped, with longer gaps between sets. Liencres is an exposed beach, so the long period might make it break a bit straight, but with that offshore wind, it’ll still be good. This is for experienced surfers. The afternoon sees the swell drop slightly to 5ft, with a light onshore wind, so it’s a bit more marginal.

Sunday morning (6 September) is back to poor conditions with a strong onshore wind and lumpy surf. The rest of the forecast fades out with small, weak swells and onshore winds.

So, the standout is without a doubt Saturday morning, 5 September. Get on it early for the best conditions. The Friday morning (28 August) session is also good, but only for the experienced crew.

This is Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Liencres Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Liencres provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Liencres can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Liencres 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 (Liencres) 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 Liencres 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.
