The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking in on the local surf scene for us.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and frustrating. We've got a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and wonky winds ahead, so don't get your hopes up for much of anything until we hit a potential window around the weekend of September 6th and 7th. The water is running a very unusual 3° warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s bathwater out there, but not much else to get excited about.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, there's really only one moment that stands out. The morning of Saturday, September 6th, is our best shot. Out at Point Dume Little Dume, conditions are shaping up to be glassy, with light offshore winds and a moderate combined wave energy (690). The swell will be a mix, coming from the SSW at about 3ft, with a solid 16-second period – that's a nice, long groundswell. This kind of period can make a point break like Dume really line up, giving us proper waves and longer lulls between sets. It could be a special morning, but it's a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed.
Before that, we have to wade through a whole lot of nothing. From now through the first week of September, the surf is tiny, with swell heights barely scraping 3ft most days. The period is all over the place – some long 18-second swells but barely any height to push them, leaving us with poor, marginal conditions. The wind is constantly cross-onshore, making things choppy and messy. There are a couple of mornings – like August 25th and September 1st – where the wind goes light and offshore, but the swell is just too small and weak to offer anything worth paddling out for. It’s a real drought.
This break is pretty inconsistent, so a run of several days with no recommendations is actually pretty normal for the area. You're better off waiting it out. That Saturday the 6th is the one to circle on the calendar. It’s still a long way off, so forecasts can change, but right now, that glassy window with a proper SSW groundswell is the only true standout. Crowds will likely be an issue if it does go off, so be ready for company.
Rusty.
