The Lowdown

Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer around the Lourdas Beach area. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a pretty quiet spell for the most part. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much, with the first real chance of a wave not showing up until Saturday the 5th of September. That’s a good two weeks of flat or near-flat conditions to get through. The water temp is sitting at a balmy 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’ll feel like a bath.

The only spot on the cards is Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. It’s an exposed beach break that’s inconsistent, and it rarely sees any proper surf. The swell direction it really wants is from the SW, but we’re not seeing that for most of this outlook.

For the first week and a half, from Sunday the 23rd of August right through to Friday the 4th of September, it’s a write-off. The swell heights barely reach 1ft, with periods as low as 2 seconds – that’s just wind slop, not surf. The combined energy is minimal, with values mostly under 100 (weak energy), often just single digits. The wind is a mixed bag of cross and cross-off, but there’s simply nothing to ride. A few mornings are glassy, but on a flat ocean, that’s just a nice view.

Now, there is one brief window that might get your heart beating a little. On Saturday the 5th of September, the morning looks promising. We get a glassy, clean start with a 4ft NW swell with a period of 8 seconds. That’s a moderate wave energy of 205 (three-digit value, moderate energy). It’s a clean, glassy morning, which is a major positive. The catch? The swell direction is NW, not the ideal SW, and it’s a beach break. With a period of 8 seconds, it’s a short period wind swell, so don’t expect long, drawn-out lines. It’s the best we’ve got, and it’s the only day that scores a 2 out of 10. The afternoon turns to a cross-shore wind, ruining the shape. That morning window is the standout.

After that little pulse, it drops right back down to nothing from Sunday the 6th of September onwards. The whole forecast is a lesson in patience. If you’re after a paddle, you might be better off with a kite on some of those windier days, especially with the cross-shore winds, because the waves just aren’t there for a surfboard.
