Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into what’s happening at Liencres over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a rough patch ahead. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with hardly anything worth getting wet for.
Right now, and for the first week and a half, it’s all tiny, weak surf. We’ve got a little NW swell trickling in, but it’s mostly around 1.3 ft to 2 ft, with the combined wave energy stuck in the weak range (28 to 107). The water’s running at 70.3°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s where the good news ends. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping things choppy and messy. The Tuesday morning of the 7th is a perfect example – clear skies, but 12 mph cross-on wind ruining the 1.3 ft NW swell.
We roll through Wednesday the 8th, Thursday the 9th, all the way through the weekend and into the next week, and it’s the same story: tiny surf, lousy conditions. The period is short on most days, under 8 seconds, robbing it of any punch. The breaks are inconsistent, and the forecast shows "poor surf conditions" on every row. There’s nothing to recommend here. For a spot like Liencres, which is usually consistent, a blank run this long is a real bummer, but it happens.
The first bit of any real change doesn’t show up until Monday, the 20th of July. That morning we see a jump in swell to 3.3 ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 124 (moderate). But hold your horses – the wind is screaming 22 mph from the WNW, making it a messy, lumpy cross-onshore. Not a paddling day, maybe one for the kite surfers if that’s your thing. The afternoon gets worse, with 28 mph onshore winds and 4.3 ft swell. That’s too big and blown out for anything fun.
Finally, on Wednesday morning, the 22nd of July, we get a glimmer. It’s the first time the report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". Swell is 2.6 ft from the NNW, period of 7 seconds, with a combined energy of 59 (weak). The wind is light from the ENE, blowing cross-offshore. That’s the cleanest wind we’ve seen in weeks. The waves won’t be world-class, but you'll get a few grovelly ones to yourself if you’re keen. Crowds are often a thing here, but on a Wednesday morning with this size, it might be pretty quiet.
That’s it. One semi-decent window on the 22nd of July morning. The rest? A bust. Keep your board waxed and hope the charts look better on the next update.

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.
