The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here again. Let’s get into the numbers for Liencres in feet and Fahrenheit.
It’s a quiet start, no two ways about it. The first week is a real snoozer. From Friday the 7th through the middle of the next week, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell and winds that are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, just making a mess of things. There’s a bump on Sunday the 9th with a combined energy of 107 (moderate), but the wind is onshore from the NW, so it’s choppy and not worth it. Monday the 10th morning is glassy, but the swell is only 2 feet from the NW with a short 9-second period – it’s barely rideable. Be patient.
The first real light appears on Wednesday the 14th of August. The morning is looking good with a glassy, offshore-like NNE breeze at 5 km/h. The swell is a clean 3 feet from the NW with an 11-second period, and the combined energy is a solid 209 (moderate). The forecast says “expect good surf conditions,” and I’m with it. This is your first good window. The water is 73°, which is a touch warmer than average, so a spring suit or even a shorty might do.
The real standout, the one to circle on the calendar, is Friday the 21st of August. The morning session is the one. Glassy conditions with a light NNW breeze, and the swell is a solid 4 feet from the NW with a 9-second period. The combined energy jumps to 286 (moderate), which means there’s proper power behind it. It’s still a size that most surfers can handle, but it’s got some grunt. The wind is clean, the waves will have shape, and this is the best of the whole 16-day window. The afternoon on the 21st gets bigger, hitting 5 feet, but the wind swings onshore from the NW and will mess it up. So, it’s a morning mission.
The 22nd of August sees a bigger pulse of energy, with a combined energy of 606 (strong) and a 6-foot swell, but a strong cross-onshore wind from the WNW at 15 mph chops it to pieces. That’s a day for the kite board, not the surfboard.
So, bottom line: the first week is a dud. The best windows are the morning of the 14th, and the absolute pick is the morning of the 21st. Don’t sleep on it.
Rusty.

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.
