The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Manorbier. This is a beach and point setup that needs a solid SW swell to really fire.
Honestly, we are looking at a long, flat spell to kick things off. From now through to mid-week next week, there's barely a ripple. The water is sitting at a very warm 64°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – that's a real standout, but it won't help the waves.
We've got a bit of a wait. Things start to stir on Saturday the 26th of July. The Sunday morning the 27th sees the energy pick up properly, with a 6ft swell from the W, and a moderate cross-shore chop. The combined energy hits 270 – that's moderate, but the quality is marked poor, so not a day to get excited about.
The best of a quiet outlook looks like Monday the 28th of July. Still a 4ft W swell, but with a clean cross-off breeze from the NNW. The energy is 150, still moderate, and it'll be cleaner than the day before. It's not a standout for size or perfection, just the least messy option. After that, it tails off again. Crowds are often around here, but with so little on offer, you might have the place to yourself.
There is nothing here that screams epic. It's a blank run that is fairly normal for the area when the swell window shuts. We'll have to wait and see if things change.
Rusty.

Information about the Manorbier Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Manorbier provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Manorbier can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Manorbier surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Manorbier) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Manorbier 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
