Table - best surf conditions forecast for Liencres over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Looking at this 16-day stretch for Liencres... I gotta be straight with you, it’s a bit of a lean run. We’ve got some action way out there, but for the first couple of weeks, you’ll be doing more watching than riding. Let’s break it down.
The pattern starts off weak and stays pretty uninspiring for a good while. From Saturday the 11th all the way through to Monday the 20th, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell – mostly under 3ft with short periods. The combined energy is really low, mostly in the double digits (95), which tells you there’s barely any juice in the water. Winds are a mixed bag, often cross or cross-onshore, and even when it’s clean, the swell just isn’t there to do anything with. You’ll see a few glassy moments – like Sunday morning the 12th with glass conditions and a 2ft NW swell – but it’s just not enough to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at 70°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when there’s no surf.
There’s a solid gap of about a week and a half with no real recommendations. Things finally start to perk up around Thursday the 23rd. By Thursday afternoon, that swell bumps up to 5ft from the NW with a period of 7 seconds and combined energy reaches 211 – moderate energy now. Still, it’s a cross-onshore from the west and described as marginal. The next few days build but stay messy.
Now, the standout window – and I mean the *only* real standout in this whole outlook – lands on Sunday the 26th. We’ve got a morning session that could be worth the wait. The swell nudges up to 6ft from the NW with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 588 – that’s moderate to strong energy, the best we’ve seen. Wind is light and cross-onshore from the WNW, so it’ll be a little textured but still clean enough to have fun. Keep in mind, Liencres is an exposed beach setup that likes swell from the NW, and this direction is spot on. The afternoon drops back to 5ft but the energy is still solid at 436. Just be aware that crowds are often an issue here, so get out early.
For beginners, the 6ft morning on the 26th is pushing the limit, but it’s workable if you’re confident. For the more experienced crew, that’s your time to shine. Everything before that is mostly a pass unless you’re desperate for a glide on the smallest of days.
Stay patient, keep an eye on that 26th, and let’s hope the forecasts hold.
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.
