The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me tell you about the surf outlook for this stretch.
Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window, I've got to be straight with you: it's a tough one for Lourdas Beach. The pickings are incredibly slim. We're looking at a long, dry spell with hardly any energy to speak of. The first real glimmer of something surfable doesn't show up until after a week of flat, tiny conditions.
The water here is sitting at 80°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only comfort.
For the first week, from Wednesday the 15th through to Tuesday the 22nd, it's a write-off. We're talking about swell heights that are barely a ripple – 0.3ft to 1.0ft with periods around 4-5 seconds and combined energy levels that are pathetic (single digits and low double digits). The wind is mostly light, sometimes glassy, but there's just no swell to work with. It's a total flat spell. You'd be better off with a paddleboard or a snorkel.
Then, finally, we get a pulse on Wednesday afternoon the 22nd. A 4ft NW swell rolls in with a 6-second period and a moderate 103 of combined energy, but it's getting chopped up by a 16 mph cross-shore. It's messy.
The closest thing to a standout comes on Thursday morning the 23rd of July. We've got a 3ft NW swell, a 7-second period, and a decent 103 combined energy. The wind is dead calm – glassy – and the water is clean. The wave comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so it's not going to be world-class, but it's the best we've got on offer. The swell direction is NW, which is exposed to SW, so it's a bit of a gamble on the banks, but with that glassy window, it's your only real shot. The swell is clean, but it's a short period, so it'll be a bit fat and crumbly. For a beginner-level spot like Lourdas, it's doable, but it's not going to turn any heads.
After that, it's back to small, weak signals for the rest of the forecast, with a few clean mornings but no significant swell to back them up.
So, bottom line: the only real chance to get wet is Thursday morning the 23rd. It's a one-morning wonder. The rest of the 16 days is a long, flat gap. Keep an eye on the sky, but don't plan your week around it.
Rusty.
