The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's call it like it is: this stretch of coast is gonna be flat as a pancake for most of the next sixteen days.
We’re talkin’ Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. There’s nothing worth paddling out for until the morning of Saturday the 25th of July – that’s over a week away. Before that, it’s just tiny ripples, 0.6ft to 0.9ft, on weak little 4-second waves, with combined energy barely hitting double digits. Even with glassy conditions, there's no swell to speak of. A big, empty gap.
That one bump on the horizon: Saturday the 25th of July morning brings a 8ft swell from the WNW, period around 9 seconds. The energy reading hits 948 – a solid push. But it’s a cross-shore wind whipping up a cross-chop, so the surface won’t be clean. The break is exposed and it’s a beach setup, so think lumpy, powerful waves that’ll be a fight. At over 7ft, this is strictly for experts. The rating says marginal, and the fish say stay away. By the afternoon it drops to 6ft with a cleaner cross-off breeze, but still strong.
Water temp is normal for the season. The rest of the time, it’s mostly glassy mornings with no surf at all. Even the afternoons are onshore or cross-shore, but with no wave, it doesn’t matter. Consistent breaks don’t usually stay this dead for long, but this looks like a genuine summer drought. Keep an eye out, but don't get your hopes up.
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.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
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.
