The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for the next couple of weeks around Lourdata or Lourdas Beach is about as flat as a pancake. We’re looking at a real dry spell on the surf front. The first glimmer of anything rideable is a long way off, and even then, it’s barely a ripple. There’s a gap of several days at the start with no real surf to speak of.
From the 22nd of July right through to the 6th of August, it’s a tough watch. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3 ft, and the period is short, so the waves are just wind slop. On the 23rd of July, you’ll see a bit of a bump from the NW around 3 ft with a 6-second period, but the wind is a fresh cross-offshore at 19 mph, which will keep it clean but gutless. The combined energy is a measly 55 (weak). Not worth paddling out for.
The 24th of July morning has a moment of glassy conditions with the wind from the WNW at just 3 mph, but the swell is only 1 ft from the NW. It’s pretty, but flat. The 27th of July morning is the same story – glassy, 2 ft from the west at 6 seconds, energy at 39 (weak). Just tiny, clean bumps.
The 30th of July morning offers a gentle offshore from the NE at 9 mph, with a 2 ft NW swell at 6 seconds, and energy of 19 (very weak). It’s clean, but you’re really just scratching for a knee-high wave. The 31st of July morning is glassy calm with 2 ft from the NW, but it’s the same story.
The only real standout, if you can call it that, is the 27th of July morning. The glassy conditions are a major positive, but the swell is just too small to get excited about. For a beginner, some of the cleaner, smaller days could be a fun paddle, but there’s no power. Over the whole 16 days, the swell never gets above 3 ft, so it’s never too big for anyone. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no drama there.
Truth is, the setup here looks more interesting for a longboard or a SUP than a proper shortboard, but even then, it’s a tough ask. The forecast can change, but for now, keep your gear in the car and wait for a better window.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Lourdata or Lourdas Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
