The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for Liencres over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The next few days are looking pretty average, with the wind and swell not really lining up for anything special. You’ll have to sit tight through Sunday and Monday, as the conditions are poor with light cross-onshore winds and small, weak swell. The combined energy on Sunday morning is a weak 313, and it’s not much better by Monday afternoon.
Tuesday the 1st of September is where we start to see a glimmer of hope. The morning brings a light, clean cross-offshore breeze from the east, and the swell is a modest 4 ft from the NW with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 291, which is moderate, and the water temp is sitting at 71°, about 2° warmer than average for this time of year – nothing too wild, just a little bit of a treat. The waves will be clean, but the size is small, so it’s more of a longboard or funboard session.
The real standout, and I mean the one you circle on the calendar, is Saturday the 5th of September. We’ve got a solid 7 ft NW swell rolling in with a very long period of 14 seconds. The combined energy is a whopping 1824, that’s strong, powerful groundswell. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east, keeping things clean. Now, a word of caution: this is a beginner-friendly break, and at over 8 ft, this swell is too big for learners. This is one for experienced surfers only. The long period will also mean the waves are powerful and could be a bit too straight for this beach, but the quality of the swell and the clean conditions make it the best on offer by a long shot. Expect crowds to be likely, as it’s often busy here.
After that, the swell drops back down. Sunday the 6th has a morning with clean 4 ft waves, but the energy is lower and the wind shifts. The rest of the second week is pretty uneventful, with small, weak swell and poor wind. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday the 8th with glassy conditions and a 3 ft swell, but it's very ordinary. From the 7th onwards, it’s a long stretch of small, weak waves, and any surfable conditions are just barely worth a paddle. The gap lasts for the better part of a week, only really picking up again on the 12th with tiny, clean waves.
So, the takeaway: if you’re an experienced surfer, your window is Saturday the 5th of September. For everyone else, it’s a waiting game with a few small, clean windows early in the week but nothing to get too excited about.
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.

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.
