The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about your local surf. To be straight with you, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead here. We’re looking at a solid 16-day window, but honestly, there’s not a single morning or afternoon that’s worth paddling out for a proper wave. The whole period is a write-off for decent surf.
The first record we’ve got is for Friday morning, July 17th, but there’s no swell to speak of—just flat and poor conditions. That sets the tone. From there, we go through a long, quiet run. The water temp is sitting at 82°F, which is about 6°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s feeling more like a bath than the ocean. For a reef break like Ristorante, that’s unusual.
We’ve got a few days with tiny waves, like Saturday morning, July 18th, with a 1ft SW swell at 4 seconds, clean cross-off wind, but it’s just too small to get excited about. Sunday morning, July 19th, is similar—1ft from the WSW at 5 seconds, clean again, but still tiny. Monday morning, July 20th, is glassy with a 0.7ft WSW swell—barely a ripple. Wednesday morning, July 22nd, has a 0.7ft WSW swell with offshore wind, but it’s nothing.
The only real change comes on Sunday, July 26th. The morning shows a 4ft SW swell at 6 seconds, but the wind is cross-shore and it’s a risk of thunderstorms, so the quality is poor. The energy is very weak (92). That afternoon, the swell jumps to 7ft from the WSW at 7 seconds, with a combined energy of (847), which is moderate wave energy. But the wind becomes a fresh cross-shore at 19 mph, turning it into a lumpy, choppy mess. For a beach-and-reef setup, that’s more kite-surfing conditions than paddle surfing. It’s too big for beginners and messy for anyone else.
After that, we’re back to flat or tiny, poor surf through the end of July and into August 1st, where we see a glassy 1ft WNW swell—clean but tiny.
The bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. The lack of consistent swell and the poor wind alignment mean you’re better off leaving the boards in the shed. For this area, a blank run like this is more normal than you’d hope. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a tough watch.
Stay patient, mate.
