The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.

First up, I’ve gotta be straight with you – there’s a brutal gap to start. Nothing worth paddling out for until the morning of Thursday the 13th of August, and even then, it’s barely a whisper. The ocean’s been flat, and the wind’s been working against us. The water’s sitting at a balmy 72°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be comfortable while you’re sitting there waiting for a wave that never comes.

The first real window where you might get a little something is Thursday the 13th of August at Point Dume Little Dume. It’s a point break, exposed to the south swell. We’re looking at a tiny 2ft of swell from the SSW, with a period of 16 seconds. That long period means the wave energy is proper groundswell, but the size is just too small to get excited about. The combined energy is moderate (277), and while the wind is light and onshore, it’s still keeping things a bit messy. This is really for the die-hards on a longboard, and even then, it’s a marginal call. The crowds are often here, so expect company.

The next few days are more of the same story. Friday the 14th of August sees a slight bump in energy, with combined energy hitting 533 (moderate) and 2ft of swell, but the winds are cross-onshore, creating chop. Not great. Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th of August are similar: a bit of swell, but the wind is spoiling the party. The point really needs clean conditions to shine, and we’re not getting them.

Now, looking further out, the best chance in this whole period is shaping up for Wednesday the 26th of August. The morning looks promising at Point Dume Little Dume. The swell is still small at 2ft from the SW, but the period is 16 seconds again, giving it some shape. What makes this stand out is the light onshore wind, which could mean cleaner faces than the afternoons. The combined energy is strong (491), showing there’s some push behind it. It’s not the standout of the year, but it’s the best we’ve got in this run. The crowds will be there, as always, but for a little point break wave, it might just be worth the paddle.

For the rest of the period, it’s a quiet, frustrating stretch. The swell stays small, and the wind is rarely your friend. If you’re a beginner, this is actually fine for soft-top practice, but anyone looking for a proper wave will be disappointed.

Stay patient, and keep an eye on the forecasts. It won’t stay this flat forever.

Rusty.
