The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's talk swell for Liencres.
We start a bit slow on Thursday the 27th. There's a tiny 1ft clean swell in the morning, but it's just not happening due to poor conditions. The water's a touch warmer than average for the time of year, sitting at 72°.
Things kick into gear on Friday the 28th morning, with a cleaner 4ft NW swell and a light offshore breeze. That's gettable. The real highlight of the first week is Saturday the 29th morning – 5ft of clean NW groundswell, 9-second period, and a light offshore wind from the SE. The wave energy is strong. It's a consistent break, but you'll have company, as crowds are likely. Sunday the 30th morning is the absolute stunner. Glassy conditions, a solid 5ft of NW groundswell, period bumping to 10 seconds, and the energy climbing. That's the session you don't miss. Monday the 31st morning is another clean glassy 5ft swell.
We hit a quiet, ordinary patch for a few days right after that with smaller waves and onshore wind, lasting through the 2nd, 3rd and 4th.
Then we've got a promising long-range call for Saturday the 5th of September. The morning brings a clean 4ft NW groundswell with a very long 11-second period, energy jumps up, and clean cross-offshore wind. That's quality. The afternoon gets bigger at 6ft, with a 13-second period and massive energy, but the "marginal" call means watch the wind or tide. That size is for experienced surfers only. Sunday the 6th morning is also a standout in the second week, with a clean 6ft NW groundswell, 11-second period, and good energy under a slight cross-offshore breeze.
Also, keep Thursday the 10th morning in mind – a glassy 4ft swell with moderate energy. The best bets are the mornings of Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th. Big, clean, long-period NW groundswell with the wind working for Liencres. This spot loves it from the NW. The long period means the sets will have real punch, which is great for quality, but at a beach break it can sometimes want to run a bit straight. The quality on these two mornings, though, is the pick of the whole 16 days.
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.
