The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be real – the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of flat or tiny, weak surf, so don’t rush to wax the board.
The water is sitting at a warm 81°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. Nice for a swim, but it won’t help the waves.
We start off with nothing on Tuesday the 21st and Wednesday the 22nd – completely flat, with poor conditions. The first real sign of life appears on Thursday morning the 23rd. We get a tiny 2ft swell from the NW, with a short period of 5 seconds. The energy is weak (23). The wind is a clean cross-offshore though, which is a positive. But honestly, that’s not worth getting excited about.
Friday the 24th is a write-off. Saturday the 25th morning shows a little bump: 3ft from the NW with a 7-second period. The energy is still weak (62). The wind is offshore from the NE, so it’ll be clean. At Lourdata or Lourdas Beach, it’s exposed to the SW, so this NW swell won’t light it up. It’s inconsistent anyway, so don’t hold your breath.
Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th are mostly flat or tiny. Monday morning the 27th is glassy with a tiny 2ft from the west, but again, the energy is pathetic (36). The rest of the week into the start of August is a total desert. From Tuesday the 28th right through to Wednesday the 5th of August, we’re looking at flat spells, tiny 0.6ft to 2ft slop, and no real power. The combined energy barely hits double digits.
There isn’t a single standout. The best on offer is probably the morning of Saturday the 25th of July, with that 3ft, offshore wind, and clean conditions. But don’t kid yourself – it’s still tiny and inconsistent. For a beginner, it might be a paddle, but for anyone else, leave the board at home, or maybe dust off the kite gear because the cross-offshore winds on the 23rd and 25th will be more interesting for that.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Lourdata or Lourdas Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
