The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – the surf forecast is looking pretty grim. We've got a solid 16-day window ahead, but for the first several days, there's just nothing to get excited about at Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. The swell is either non-existent or so tiny it's barely a ripple. The combined energy is as low as it gets, with figures like 5 and 2 (weak energy) in the early days, and mostly zero energy for long stretches. The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that's a nice bonus if you're just having a swim, but for surfing, it's a bust.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't come until Saturday the 22nd of August. That morning, we finally see a little bump, with a 1ft swell from the NW, and a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is still tiny at 12 (weak energy), but the wind is glassy, which is a big plus. The waves will be small and weak, so it's only really for beginners or anyone desperate for a paddle. After that, the rest of the window dribbles out with tiny 0.3ft to 1.0ft swells and poor surf conditions.
Honestly, for a proper wave, you're looking at a long wait. The first couple of weeks are a total write-off. That Saturday the 22nd morning is the only thing that even comes close to being worth a mention, but it's not a standout for anyone except a total beginner. The rest of the time, the beach is flat or close to it.
Keep your board in the car and check back later. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's a tough watch.
