Point Dume Little Dume Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, let’s have a look at the 16-day outlook for Point Dume Little Dume. I’m not gonna lie to you, it’s a bit of a flat spell on the whole. The swell is small and the winds are mostly cross-onshore, so conditions are going to be pretty average for a while. The water temp is about par for the course for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first few days, from the 10th through to the 13th, are looking pretty poor. We’re seeing waves around 2ft to 2ft, with combined energy figures in the low 200s. That’s weak energy, and with the wind blowing cross-onshore, it’s going to be small and bumpy. Not really worth paddling out for unless you’re desperate for a splash.

Things pick up a touch from the 14th, but it’s still marginal. The swell bumps up to 2ft by the afternoon, and the energy climbs into the 500s, which is moderate. But the wind is still on it, so it’s messy. The morning of the 15th has a bit more size, around 3ft with a period of 16 seconds, and the energy is moderate at 451. It’s still marginal, but there might be the odd clean one if you’re patient.

The 16th and 17th are still in that same boat – waves around 3ft to 3ft, but the wind is just not our friend. It’s either on or cross-onshore, keeping the surface bumpy. The energy is still moderate, in the 300-400s, but it’s not translating into good shape.

Honestly, there’s not a standout day in this whole window. The best bet looks like the morning of the 15th, with 3ft of SSW swell and a 16-second period. It’s not big, but that longer period means a bit more push. It’s still only a marginal call, and the light onshore wind won’t help. There’s a couple of other mornings like the 17th and 19th that are similar, but they’re all in the same marginal category.

After that, the swell fades back down to 2ft to 2ft for the last few days of the window. The 25th shows a bit of a spike in energy to 391, but the swell is still only 2ft. It’s just one of those runs where the surf is consistently small and the wind is never quite right. It’s a long stretch of nothing special, so maybe dust off the longboard or find something else to do for a bit.
