The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for Liencres over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we've got a bit of a slow starter. The first couple of days are a bit messy. Monday the 31st has a 6ft NW swell, but the wind is all over the place and the conditions are just marginal. The water is sitting at 71°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year – nothing too crazy, just a little bit of extra warmth.
Things don't get going until Tuesday morning, September 1st. That's where we see our first real standout. We've got a glassy morning with the wind coming light from the ESE, and a 4ft NW swell. The energy is moderate (318), and the break is a consistent, exposed spot. This is the one to aim for. The wind is perfect, making for clean, smooth waves. It's a great call for a dawn patrol.
The surf drops away quickly after that. From Wednesday the 2nd right through to the end of the first week, the swell drops to under 3ft and the energy is weak (mostly under 100). The wind is often cross or cross-off, but the wave size just isn't there to make it worthwhile. There's a solid 5-day gap of nothing worth chasing.
Then we get a cracker of a run from Saturday the 5th of September. The early morning is looking prime. A 4ft NW groundswell with a solid 13-second period rolls in, and the wind is glassy from the east. The energy is a strong 573, and it's labelled as "expect very good surf conditions". This is the best session on offer. The long period will make for some proper lines, and with clean conditions, Liencres will be firing. The afternoon gets windier with a cross-off from the ENE, pushing the swell up to 6ft and the energy over 1000, but the morning is the gold.
Sunday the 6th is another good one. A 5ft NW swell with a 12-second period, clean cross-off winds from the ENE, and energy at 565. It's a solid follow-up session, though the morning is the clear winner again.
After that, the swell fades out into a long, quiet stretch. The second week is a write-off. From the 7th to the 15th of September, we’re looking at tiny waves, poor conditions, and low energy. It’s a proper blank run. A few glassy mornings pop up, but the swell is just too small to get excited about.
So, to wrap it up: the best bet is the glassy morning of Saturday the 5th of September, with Sunday the 6th as a solid backup. The first Tuesday morning (September 1st) is also a good call for a cleaner, smaller session. After that, you’re waiting a long time for anything else.
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.
