Mondos Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking, or not cooking, for the next couple of weeks.

Truth is, it's looking pretty slow. We’ve got a long stretch with nothing worth getting out of bed for, and the first real chance to wet a line doesn’t show up until the morning of Tuesday, July 7th. That’s a big gap, so don't rush.

The only break in the forecast is Mondos, a sandbar that’s fairly consistent and fairly open to the swell. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, and the water temp is sitting at 63°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – a nice little bonus.

For the best of a bad bunch, look at Tuesday the 7th. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the SSW, but the energy bumps up into the moderate range. A light breeze keeps things tidy, even if it’s a little cross. It’ll be small, but it’s the most energy we see for a while. Since crowds are sometimes, you might have a few others out with you.

Later on, Sunday the 12th shows a glassy morning with the wind dropping to just 5 km/h from the WSW. The swell is still only 2ft from the SSW, but with the ocean flat as a pancake, it’ll be clean and surfable, just very small.

Then on Wednesday the 15th, there’s a tiny pulse from the west, only 1ft, but with a really long period of 19 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, but there’s just no size behind it. The glassy conditions that afternoon make it worth a look if you’re really keen, but don’t expect much.

For the rest of the time, it’s poor conditions with tiny swell and cross-onshore breezes. Wave heights never get above 2ft. It’s a board-storage kind of forecast. If you’ve got a longboard, you might find something on the glassy mornings, but for a proper surf, it’s slim pickings.

Keep an eye out, things can change, but right now it’s a quiet one.
