The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s call it like it is—this is a flat spell. Over the full 16-day window from now to the end of August, there’s barely a bump. The first hint of anything surfable shows up on the Monday morning of the 28th of August, but it’s tiny.

First up, the water’s warm—about 83°F at the start—and that’s a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least it feels nice to be in the water.

Right now and through this week, it’s flat. There are a few mornings and afternoons with glassy conditions, especially on the 16th and 17th, but that’s like a swimming pool—no swell. The wind is light, shifting from east to west, but the combined energy is 1 or 0 most days, meaning no wave energy at all. That flat gap runs from now through the 19th.

On Wednesday the 19th of August, we finally see a tiny pulse: about 1ft from the northwest, with a weak period around 5–6 seconds, and combined energy only 7–11. That’s a micro wave. Conditions are clean with a light cross-off breeze from the northwest, but you’ll be scratching for anything.

There’s a small window around Monday the 24th of August where that 2ft northwest swell shows up at Lourdata or Lourdas Beach (Kefalonia), combined energy just 12, and the wind stays light and cross-off. It’s really only workable on a longboard or a foamie, but it’s the best on offer in the whole outlook. That little pulse repeats on Tuesday the 25th, again around 1ft from the northwest, period 6 seconds, energy 13. Nothing special, but it’s the only time the ocean does anything.

Later, on the 28th of August, a 1ft northwest swell with a 5-second period shows up, and by Saturday the 29th it’s glassy—but just a tiny ripple, less than half a foot.

Overall, there’s no standout here. The best you’ll get is ankle-high slop on those few days between the 24th and 25th. If you’re a serious surfer, you’re better off finding something else to do. If you’re a beginner or just want to paddle around in warm water, you might get a ride on a longboard on the 24th morning. But don’t hold your breath for proper waves. Forecasts can turn though, so don’t write it off completely.

Rusty.
