The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach.
Honestly, it's a bleak stretch ahead. We're looking at a 16-day window with pretty much nothing to write home about. The forecast is filled with "poor surf conditions" right through, and the combined swell energy is basically non-existent, sitting at zero for the first week and only creeping up to a weak 13 (13) by Monday the 10th of August. There's a lot of flat spells and glassy mornings with no swell to back them up. The best you can hope for is a tiny bump of 3ft (3ft) from the NW on the 12th of August, but that's still only producing a weak 52 (52) energy and the wind is cross-shore, making it choppy and messy. For a beginner break that's inconsistent, it's just not going to be worth the paddle. The water is sitting at 80°F (80°F), which is a touch warmer than the average for this time of year, but you won't be needing a wetsuit regardless.
The whole first week is a write-off. From the 2nd of August right through to the 9th, there's nothing. You'll see a few mornings with glassy conditions, but the swell is zero or a feeble 0.7ft to 1ft (0.7ft to 1ft) with a short period of 4 seconds. It's just not surfable. Even the afternoons, when the wind picks up from the WNW, it's just cross-shore chop on a flat ocean.
The second week offers a slight tease. The 10th of August Monday morning has a glassy 2ft (2ft) from the WNW, but it's still tiny. The 12th of August Wednesday morning is the biggest we see, with a 3ft (3ft) NW swell and a period of 6 seconds, but the energy is still only 49 (49) and the wind is cross-shore. By the 13th of August, it's dropping again. The 15th of August Saturday morning gives a glassy 1ft (1ft) from the NW, but again, it's small and weak. There are no standouts here. Nothing is worth highlighting.
The bottom line is this: for a spot that's already inconsistent, this 16-day run of poor surf is pretty standard for the area in the middle of summer. Don't bother packing the board. It's a flat spell, and the forecast would need to change dramatically for it to be any good. For the more experienced, the bigger swell days are still too small and the wind is wrong, so it's not even a kite-surfing option.
Rusty.
