The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are shaping up like for Liencres.
Honestly, it's a bit of a slow start. We're looking at a run of poor surf conditions right through the first few days, with wave heights barely mustering much over 1ft and a mix of light cross-onshore breezes. It's not until Thursday morning, the 6th of August, that we finally see a pulse of energy. The swell starts to build from the NW with a 4ft swell and a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is still moderate at 192. The wind swings cross-offshore from the ENE, which is a massive plus, cleaning things up nicely. The afternoon picks up even more, hitting a 4ft swell from the NNW with a combined energy of 227, and the wind holds cross-offshore. It's still not big, but it'll be the most rideable surf of the early run.
The real standout, and the one to circle on the calendar, is the morning of Friday the 7th of August. The swell drops back to 2ft from the NNW with an 8-second period, but the kicker is the wind. We're looking at a glassy, dead calm morning. The combined energy is weak at 72, but for a small, clean, and user-friendly wave, that's the call. For a beginner-friendly spot like Liencres, this is perfect. The water temperature is about par for the course at this time of year.
After that brief window, it's a return to form with more small, onshore, or cross-shore junk through the weekend and into the next week. The second week of the forecast is even more grim, with wave heights struggling to hit 3ft and persistent cross-onshore winds. There's a brief moment on the morning of Monday the 17th of August where the swell picks up to 3ft from the NW, but the wind is a strong 15 mph cross-onshore, making it blown-out and messy. The following day, Tuesday the 18th, sees a bigger 5ft NW swell with a 322 moderate-to-strong combined energy, but again, it's hammered by a fresh 12 mph cross-onshore wind. That setup, with the wind and chop, starts to look more interesting for the kite crew than us paddle surfers.
So, the honest truth is: Friday morning, the 7th of August, is your best bet. Get out there early for the glassy clean-up.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
