The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s headed our way for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’m gonna be straight with you – it’s a grim stretch for Liencres. Right from the start, the news is pretty flat. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no real surf worth mentioning for the first week and a half. From Thursday the 30th of July right through to about the 10th of August, it’s all knee-high dribble and onshore junk. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 72°F, but that’s about the only bright spot. You’ll see the odd day with a glassy morning, like the 4th of August, but the swell is barely a ripple at 1ft – you’d be floating more than surfing.
The combined swell energy is weak, mostly sitting in the low double digits or under 100 (79 being the highest early on), which tells you there’s just no power in the water. The wind is messy, shifting from cross-on to onshore, and the period is short, so even if there was a bump, it’d be a close-out mess. For a beginner-friendly spot that’s consistent, this is a real bummer.
The first faint glimmer of hope comes on Tuesday the 11th of August. The afternoon shows a bit of a pulse: 3ft of swell from the NNW, but it’s a short-period 6 seconds and onshore from the WNW at 9 mph. The wave comment sums it up – poor surf conditions. It’s not a goer.
Then on Wednesday the 12th of August, we see another little bump of 3ft from the N, again short period (6 seconds) and cross-onshore. The combined energy is still weak (59), and it’s just not clean enough to get excited about. The best we can say is the water is still a touch warmer than average, but that’s cold comfort.
Honestly, for the whole 16-day window, there isn’t a single standout. There’s nothing that’s good for beginners, intermediates, or experts. The swell never gets above 3ft, and the wind is almost never in our favour. If you’re desperate for a paddle, the glassy morning on the 4th of August might give you a chance to sit on a 1ft dribble, but don’t expect a wave. This is one of those rare blank runs for Liencres, and it’s a tough pill to swallow.
Stay dry, for now.

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.
