The Lowdown
Well, folks, I’ve gotta be straight with you—this stretch of coast is looking pretty flat. We’re talking about Lourdata or Lourdas Beach, and honestly, the 16-day window is a bit of a write-off for proper surf. The finder tells me the guidance here is for a beginner spot that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, and that’s exactly what we’re seeing. The water’s sitting at 80°F, which is about normal for this time of year, nothing wild.
From now through to the end of the forecast, there’s literally no surf worth paddling out for. The first recommendation doesn’t even pop up until the 5th of August, and even then, it’s tiny—we’re talking 0.7ft to 1.0ft of swell from the west, with periods barely reaching 3 to 4 seconds. That’s just wind chop, not real waves. The combined energy is weak, sitting at 1 to 3 (0 to 2 in the early days). There’s a long gap of flat, poor conditions from the start, with nothing but glassy mornings and cross-shore afternoons that leave the water messy.
The 12th of August morning sees a slight bump—2ft from the west-northwest, period 6 seconds, and combined energy hitting 37. That’s still weak, but it’s the best we’ve got. Wind’s light from the north-northwest, making it cross-offshore and clean. But even then, it’s not enough to call it surfable. The afternoon gets windier, NW at 16 mph, and the energy bumps to 40, but it’s still just a weak, short-period swell.
After the 12th, it drops back to tiny waves and flat spells until the 17th. Honestly, this is a blank run for the area—nothing consistent, just a few days of ankle-high slop. If you’re desperate, the 12th morning is your best bet, but don’t expect much. For kite surfers, the stronger winds on the 12th afternoon might make things interesting, but for paddle surfing, it’s a no-go.
