The Lowdown

Right, folks, Rusty here, looking at the surf situation for our little corner of the world.

Alright, let’s be straight with you. The outlook for the next sixteen days is a tough one to swallow if you’re a surfer. The vast majority of this period is a write-off for any kind of proper ride. There’s a long, quiet stretch with barely a ripple worth paddling for. Don't get your hopes up until we get to the back end of the month.

The only spot on the menu is Lourdata or Lourdas Beach, and even then, the wait is a long one. For the first eight days, from the 18th right through to the 25th of August, don't bother. We're talking tiny, messy slop. Wave heights are stuck around 0.6 ft to 2 ft with weak, short-period windswell. The combined wave energy is a sad 2 to 15 units. It’s just not happening.

There’s a real gap of nothing until the morning of Wednesday, the 27th of August. Even then, it’s not great. The water is warm, sitting at 81°F, which is about a degree and a half warmer than normal for the time of year, but that’s the only bright spot.

Now, for the one and only time this spot even looks like it might be worth a look is on the 26th of August. The early morning session shows some pulse. We get a northwest swell coming in at 4 ft with a 7-second period. The combined swell energy jumps to a more noticeable 137 units, which is moderate. The wind is forecast to be glassy, with a light NNW breeze, so it’ll be clean. For a beach break like this, the short period means it won't be world-class, but on a glassy morning with a bit of height, you could snag a few fun ones. The swell is coming from the northwest, which is okay, but the optimum here is from the southwest, so it won't be perfect. Still, it's the best we're going to get. If you're an absolute beginner, it might be a little much, but for anyone else, it’s a go.

After that brief tease, it fades again. The rest of the forecast is back to flat or near-flat conditions with more glassy or clean mornings but total lack of swell. Strong winds pick up on the afternoon of the 31st, but with no swell to speak of, it’s a kitesurfer’s day, not a paddle surfer’s.

So, to wrap it up: this area is in a flat spell. It’s a long run of tiny surf. If you need a fix, pencil in that glassy morning of the 26th of August at Lourdas Beach. The rest of the time, save your wax.

Rusty.
