Table - best surf conditions forecast for Road K over the next 16 days.
Hey, it's Rusty. Let's get into what we've got at Road K.
Honestly, the start is a dry spell. The first rideable waves hit on Wednesday morning, July 8th, but they're nothing special. We're looking at a 3ft swell from the ENE with a short 6-second period, and the combined energy is weak at 170. The wind is a light offshore from the north, so it'll be clean. Water temp is 73°, just a touch warmer than average for this time of year. That morning is your best bet early on, but it's not a standout.
Then it's a rough run. Thursday through Sunday is all onshore wind and choppy, poor conditions. We get a small break on Wednesday morning, July 15th, with glassy conditions and a light air—3ft from the SSW, 6-second period, and weak energy (82). Surfable, but still very ordinary.
The real highlight doesn't come until Sunday morning, July 19th. Swell jumps to 6ft from the south at 7 seconds, with moderate energy at 399. The wind is a light offshore from the NNE, so it'll be clean. This is the best of the whole outlook. The south direction works well for this spot. Not big enough for experts, but solid for everyone else.
Then Monday morning, July 20th, brings the biggest swell: 7ft from the south at 8 seconds, with strong energy at 951. But the wind is onshore from the SSE, even if light. That'll mess with the shape, and the period is short. It's marginal—maybe fun on a bigger board if you can find a corner, but not clean.
After that, the second week fades into smaller, choppier surf with onshore winds. The 19th and the morning of the 20th are your windows. After that, we're waiting again.
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.
