Table - best surf conditions forecast for Road K over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's switch to feet and degrees for you old-schoolers. Rusty here, and I gotta be honest – this forecast is a total bummer. We're looking at a sixteen-day stretch and the surf is mostly dead. There's a long gap of nothing worthwhile, so brace yourselves.
The first hint of something you could possibly ride is on the morning of Friday, July 10th, at Road K. This sandbar is exposed, but the swell is a weak 2ft from the S, with a short 6-second period. The energy is puny (64). The water is a touch warmer than normal at 73°F. The wind is from the WNW at 12 mph, giving us a clean, cross-offshore look. It's surfable, but it's just ordinary. This spot is a beginner zone, so it's safe, but there's no power.
The morning of Saturday, July 11th, is a carbon copy at Road K. A 3ft S swell, still short period at 7 seconds, with weak energy (80). The wind is from the NE at 9 mph, keeping it clean and cross-offshore. Again, surfable but very ordinary. That's the high point, and it's a low bar.
After that, we hit a massive dead zone. From Saturday afternoon all the way through the morning of Friday, July 17th, it's a total washout. Poor conditions, choppy winds, and tiny waves. Don't even think about it.
The morning of Friday, July 17th gives a little whisper. The wind turns offshore from the N at 6 mph, making for clean conditions. The swell is a tiny 2ft from the SSW with a 6-second period and weak energy (48). It's clean, but it's still just ordinary.
Then we get a few glassy mornings. The 19th and 20th of July have near-zero wave heights – 1ft to 1ft – with glassy or offshore wind. The morning of Sunday, July 19th, has a 1ft SE swell, 8-second period, and a light offshore NW wind at 3 mph. The morning of Monday, July 20th, is glassy with a 1ft SE swell. But these are tiny. You'd be floating.
Honestly, this is a barren run. There's nothing even close to a standout. The only time you might get a fun little knee-high wave is the mornings of the 10th, 11th, or 17th, but it's a stretch. The rest is a long, flat, and choppy mess. For an exposed spot like Road K, this is a rough patch.
Rusty.

Information about the Road K Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Road K provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Road K can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Road K surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Road K) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Road K may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Road K is 28 km (17 miles) from Mastic. If you plan a vacation in Long Island New York, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mastic. Mastic has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
