The Lowdown

Alright, I’m Rusty, and here’s the lowdown for Liencres in feet, miles per hour, and Fahrenheit.

First week’s a tough one. From Wednesday 19th August through the early part of the following week, the wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, and the swell is weak. The water’s at 74°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s about the only good news. The combined energy of the swells is often in the low double digits – like 13 (very weak) up to 94 (still weak). You’re looking at waves around 1ft to 3ft, with a period of 5 to 7 seconds, and the wind is often 10 to 20 mph from the wrong direction. The comment is almost always “poor surf conditions”. Saturday 22nd August morning does have a glassy moment – wind is calm, 0 mph from the SSW, with a 4ft NW swell (9-second period) and combined energy 329 (moderate). That’s surfable, but it’s brief and the overall quality is still “expect good surf conditions” at best. The next few days are mostly small, choppy, and forgettable.

Now, second week gets interesting, but with a big caveat. Monday 31st August morning: a solid 10ft NW swell with a 10-second period, wind light cross-shore from the SW at 6 mph, and combined energy 1654 (very strong). That’s a serious amount of water. But the guidance says this swell is predicted to be too big for this break. Liencres is a beginner spot, so that’s expert-only territory. If you’re not a pro, stay out.

The real standout is Wednesday 2nd September morning. You’ve got a 6ft NW swell, 9-second period, combined energy 516 (strong), and the wind is calm – dead glassy. The forecast says “expect very good surf conditions”. That’s the best of the whole run. The NW direction is the optimum for Liencres, and with zero wind, it’s going to be clean and lined up. Thursday 3rd September morning is also a nice option: 4ft NW swell, 8-second period, combined energy 224 (moderate), and again glassy. That’s a solid, approachable wave for everyone.

So, to sum it up: first week is a bust. The second week, especially the morning of 2nd September, is the one to aim for. The 31st is for experts only. Pick your windows and go early.

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.
