The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on offer at Nesika Beach.
Alright, straight up, the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a bit of a bummer. We've got a decent sized, long-period SW groundswell pushing through, but the wind is just going to be a persistent problem. The water is sitting at 53°F which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you'll want a good wetsuit.
The first chance for a wave is Saturday morning, July 25th. We're looking at a 3ft SW swell with a very long 21-second period. The combined energy is moderate (831). The wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the SSW, so that morning session should be clean. It's a marginal forecast, but that's the best window we've got. The swell direction is a solid match for the break.
By Saturday afternoon, the wind swings cross-shore, and the quality drops. Sunday morning, July 26th, the swell bumps up to 4ft from the SW, but the wind is onshore from the WNW. The energy kicks up a notch (1087), but the onshore wind will mess it up. The rest of the week and into August is a write-off. The wind is relentless from the NNW and NW, blowing onshore and cross-onshore, often at 15 to 25 mph. The swell drops off, and the conditions are labeled "poor" across the board. The waves are small, choppy, and messy.
The only real standout, if you can call it that, is that Saturday morning, July 25th. It's not going to be a classic, but with that long period and clean-ish wind, it's your best bet. After that, there's a solid run of nothing until the very end of the forecast. The swell returns in the second week, but it's short-period windswell from the NNW, and the wind is howling, making it look more like a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. A blank run like this is pretty normal for this area when the winds don't cooperate.
Stay hopeful, check the forecasts, and maybe pick up a new hobby for a week.
Rusty.
