The Lowdown

Alright, grab a seat. Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking flat as a pancake for the Ionian side of Kefalonia. We’ve got Lourdas Beach on the radar, but honestly, it’s a real quiet period.

The water is sitting at a balmy 83.5°, which is about 6.8° warmer than what we’d usually expect for this time of year – that’s very unusual, like swimming in bathwater.

September 15th (Tuesday) through September 18th (Friday): Don’t even bother waxing up. We’re talking about a combined swell energy of only (1) to (2) – that’s nearly nothing. Tiny dribbles of 0.3ft from the NW with a short, weak period of 4 to 5 seconds. The wind is a mess on Tuesday with risk of thunderstorms and cross-off/cross winds, though Wednesday morning clears up with a light offshore from the NE. Still, there’s no wave to catch.

September 19th (Saturday) & September 20th (Sunday): A slight lift. Swell nudges up to 1.0ft from the WSW, still a weak 5-second period. The combined energy is a measly (4). Saturday morning is glassy calm with no wind, and Sunday morning has a tiny NE offshore breeze. It’s clean, but you’re looking at knee-high wobblers at best. Not really worth the paddle.

September 21st (Monday) through September 25th (Friday): Back to the doldrums. Swell drops to 0.7ft and then 0.3ft, with energy falling from (3) down to (0). A few glassy mornings and some light offshores, but the ocean is basically a lake. No surf to speak of.

September 26th (Saturday) through September 30th (Wednesday): The wind picks up from the SW and SSW at 12 to 16 mph, with risk of thunderstorms. The swell tries to push a tiny 0.7ft from the WNW, but it’s onshore and choppy. Combined energy only gets to (4) at best. The last couple of days go completely flat again with glassy conditions but zero waves.

The Standout: There isn’t one. The best you’ll get is a quiet, glassy morning around the 19th or 20th for a tiny, clean 1.0ft wave, but it’s truly a beginner-only, inconsistent ankle-snapper. If you’re a kiter, the afternoon sea breezes and building wind on the 26th might look more interesting than anything a surfboard could ride.

Hang tight, mate. This stretch is a write-off.
