The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. I’ll level with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty darn flat.

We start on Thursday the 13th of August, and for the first five days there is absolutely nothing. A big fat gap of no surf whatsoever.

The first whisper of a wave shows up on Tuesday the 18th of August. It’s a tiny 0.7ft swell from the WSW with a short 4-second period. The combined wave energy is a measly 2 (weak). It’s glassy in the morning, but you’ll be floating around more than surfing.

The best we’ve got is Wednesday the 19th of August. We see a 1ft swell from the WSW with a 5-second period. Still tiny and weak, energy at 9, but the morning has light cross-shore winds that make it just about ridable for a beginner on a soft top.

That same little 1ft swell sticks around for Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st, but it’s all very marginal. The wind gets messy in the afternoons. Lourdas Beach (Kefalonia) is an inconsistent break anyway, so this run of flatness is pretty normal for the area.

From the 22nd all the way through to the 28th of August, it’s more of the same story. We get pulses of 0.7ft to 2ft swell, all with short periods of 3 to 5 seconds and energy readings barely cracking double digits. Mornings are often clean with light offshore or cross-offshore breezes from the NW or NE, but there’s just no wave to catch. The afternoons get a moderate cross-shore chop that messes up the surface.

The combined swell energy stays weak the entire time. There are no standout days, no real swell to get excited about. Water temp is about average for this time of year, so at least it’s not cold if you take a dip.

Honestly, this setup looks better for a kayak or a kite than a surfboard. It’s a quiet spell, but things can change quick around here.

Rusty.
