The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking the local scene. Got to be honest, the next 16 days are looking pretty flat for My Khe / Da Nang. We’re in for a long, quiet stretch. The surf is a no-show for the first week, with nothing but tiny, weak bumps. The combined swell energy is stuck in the single digits and low teens, which is just a whisper. We’re looking at a dry spell until the very end of the month.
The water’s sitting at a warm 86°, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least a swim will be nice.
Let’s break it down. From Saturday the 18th right through to the morning of Tuesday the 29th, we’re looking at wave heights of 0.3ft to 1ft. That’s barely a ripple. Winds are a mess of onshore and cross-shore breezes, and with periods mostly around 5 seconds, it’s just wind slop. Not worth paddling for.
You’ll see a slight pulse start to show up Wednesday afternoon, the 29th of July. The combined energy creeps up to 50 (moderate), with a period of 15 seconds – that’s a proper long-period groundswell. But the height is still only 1ft, and the wind is cross-on and choppy. It’s a tease.
The real standout, the only window worth mentioning, comes on Thursday the 30th of July. The morning of the 30th is looking interesting. The swell is ENE at 1ft, with a period of 13 seconds. Combined energy is up to 74 (moderate), and the wind is glassy, dead calm. That’s clean. The afternoon of the 30th sees the energy peak at 99 (still moderate), with the swell pushing 2ft from the ENE. The wind goes light cross-shore, just a little texture. This is the best we’ve got. For a beginner-friendly break, 2ft is small but doable, and with that longer period, the waves will have a bit of push. The direction is ENE, which is a touch off the optimum NE, but it’s in the ballpark.
That’s the highlight. The morning of Friday the 1st of August is glassy again, but the swell energy drops right back to 14. After that, it’s back to the dribble.
So, to sum it up: this is a flat spell for Da Nang. If you’re keen, keep an eye on the afternoon of Thursday the 30th of July for the cleanest, most rideable little waves. Everything else is a lake.
Rusty.
