The Lowdown
Alright, it's Rusty again with the imperial rundown for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach.
Honestly, the outlook for the next stretch is a total bust for anything surfable. For over a week, from Tuesday August 25th right through the end of the month and into early September, you’re looking at flatness. We’re talking waves around 0.7 ft to 1 ft, weak and short period – just not enough energy. The combined swell numbers are mostly in the single digits, so the ocean is basically asleep.
Then there’s a big dry spell until we finally see a pulse. On Friday, September 4th, the morning shapes up with clean, glassy conditions and wave heights around 4 ft from the WNW with a 7-second period. The combined energy jumps to 141 – that’s the most we see in the whole 16 days, and it’s moderate. For this exposed beach, it’s the only real highlight. The water temp is about 82°F, a touch warmer than usual, so it’s comfortable. The following morning, Saturday the 5th, is smaller at 3 ft but still glassy.
For a beginner break, even the 4 ft stuff might feel a bit much for total beginners, but it’s well within range for most. The afternoon of the 4th has a little more size but gets chopped up by the wind. That Friday morning glass is your best bet.
Nothing else on the horizon. Rusty out.
