The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk about Manorbier in feet and knots, the way it should be.
Truth is, it’s a tough forecast. For the next two weeks, the surf is largely a no-show. There’s a big stretch of flatness until the early morning of Monday, August 3rd. The water’s about normal for this time of year, nothing unusual.
The only half-decent moment is the morning of Monday, August 3rd. We’re looking at a tiny 3ft swell from the WSW with a 9-second period. The combined energy is a weak 99, so it’s limp, but it’s the best we’ll get. A light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE will keep the surface clean. It’s your only chance to maybe find a crumbly wave on the sand or the point, but it’s not a standout. It’s just the only ride in town.
After that, it’s a long, sad march of flatness. The rest of the week and into the second week is all knee-high slop, 0.3ft to 2ft, with mostly rubbish wind. There are a few glassy moments, like the afternoon of Sunday, August 2nd, and the morning of Wednesday, August 5th, but there’s no swell to go with them. The offshore winds that kick in from August 8th are just blowing over a dead ocean. For Manorbier, a flat spell like this in the summer is just the way it goes.
Leave the stick at home. It’s not worth the effort.

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.
