Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk surf for Narragansett.
It’s a pretty bleak run for the next couple of weeks. Right now, there’s no surf to speak of. The water’s warm for the time of year, about 71°, which is over 5° warmer than normal – that’s very unusual, but you won’t need a thick wetsuit even if you’re just staring at a flat ocean.
The first hint of anything rideable doesn’t show up until Sunday the 19th of July. That’s a full two weeks of flat, poor conditions. For a spot like North Pier, this stretch of no surf feels longer than normal, but it happens.
The best, and really only, window to get wet looks like Sunday the 19th of July through Monday the 20th of July. On Sunday morning, we’re looking at a 5ft swell from the south with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 395. The wind is light and cross-offshore, which is a major positive – that’ll keep things clean. By Sunday afternoon, the swell drops to 5ft, but it goes glassy. This is a spot that gets sheltered from the south swell, so while it’s the best on offer, don’t expect perfection. The waves will be okay for an intermediate, but 5ft is on the bigger side for a beginner at this break.
Monday the 20th of July still has some energy left – around 3ft from the south with light offshore winds in the morning. It’s a drop-off, but still clean. That’s your best shot for the entire outlook.
Overall, it’s a long, quiet wait. The Sunday and Monday window is the standout purely because it’s the only real surf showing. Keep your expectations low and the board waxed just in case.
