The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Lourdata or Lourdas Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty flat run. The water is sitting at 83°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing firing. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak swells – you’re not going to find anything worth paddling out for. The first few days, from Tuesday the 11th through to the end of that week, are all showing poor surf conditions with combined wave energy barely making it into double digits (1). The swell is a tiny 0.7ft to 0.3ft from the WNW or NW, with a short period of just 4 seconds. There’s no power at all.
The weekend of the 16th and 17th is a complete write-off, with no measurable swell at all. The wind will be glassy in the mornings, which is a tease, but with nothing to ride, it’s just a pretty view.
We start to see a tiny whisper of life around the 20th of August. On Thursday morning the 20th, we get a 1ft swell from the SW with a period of 5 seconds, and a clean cross-offshore wind from the NNW. The energy is still weak (6), but it’s the best the whole window has to offer. It’s small and weak, but it’s clean. Friday the 21st morning is similar – 1ft from the NW with a 6-second period, and a clean cross-offshore breeze. Energy creeps up to (10). Even so, it’s still a beginner-only affair, and the break is inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting a while for a wave.
The pattern doesn’t change much for the final week. The 22nd and 23rd have glassy mornings with tiny 1.0ft to 1ft swells, but the energy is still low. After that, it fades back to nothing.
There are no standout days here. The most surfable, if you can call it that, will be Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st in the mornings. But don’t expect much. It’s a flat spell, and for a spot that’s already inconsistent, this is a normal run of poor conditions.
