The Lowdown

Alright, grab your board shorts, 'cause we're looking at the next couple of weeks down at Lourdas Beach, or as the locals call it, Lourdata. It’s been flat, and honestly, it’s going to stay that way for a good long while. We’re looking at a big gap of nothing before we see anything even worth paddling out for.

The water’s sitting at a warm 82°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Good for hanging out, not so good for waves right now.

For the first week, we're in a serious dry spell. It’s dead flat through the 15th and 16th, and even when we see a ripple on the 17th and 18th, it’s barely ankle-biters at 0.7ft to 1ft. Mornings are glassy, which would be perfect if there was anything to ride. The afternoons get a bit of a cross-shore wobble to them. There is just nothing here, the energy readings are all weak, which is about as weak as it gets.

Come the 19th and 20th, we’re still scratching our heads. Swell is still tiny and confused, coming from the WSW with a period of 5 seconds. This is pure windswell junk, not anything with any push. The wind is a bit of a mixed bag, with Thursday afternoon seeing a bump in the cross-shore wind that will just chop up that ankle-high slop anyway.

By the 21st and 22nd, the swell direction shifts a little more westerly, but the size is still pathetic, maxing out at a meager 1ft. The mornings are clean, and we get a bit of a cross-off breeze, which would be beautiful if there was a wave to surf. It’s just frustrating. The energy is still weak. There is still nothing to get excited about.

We're now in the second week, and still, the ocean is just not cooperating. From the 23rd to the 24th, we are still seeing those tiny, weak, 0.7ft to 1ft blips. It's just enough to mess with your head. The morning of the 24th looks clean, which is a plus, but it's still tiny.

Then, finally, on Tuesday the 25th and into Wednesday the 26th, we see a pulse. It’s not big, but it’s something. The energy starts to climb, and the swell bumps up to 2ft. The wind goes cross-off and clean. Then on Wednesday the 26th, it gets even better. The morning is dead glassy and the afternoon is the pick of the week, seeing 3ft with a 6-second period and the energy jumping up. That is the one true standout so far, still small but it has some shape to it. This is the best this stretch is going to get.

The wind stays favourable on the 27th, with a cross-off breeze and a jump in size to 4ft on Thursday afternoon. The energy is up, which is about as strong as this spot will see. It's still a small, clean day, but that cross-off wind is going to be your friend.

Friday the 28th looks like it’s getting a bit too windy, with that offshore breeze turning into a strong 25 mph gust in the afternoon. The swell is dropping and getting a bit mixed up with that wind, so the quality will suffer.

The last couple of days, the 29th and 30th, look like it flattens right back out again. So, there you have it. A long, flat wait with one day, the 26th afternoon and possibly the 27th, that might give you a couple of fun, clean little ones. It's a long shot, but for this stretch, it’s the best we’re going to get. Be patient.
