The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you how it’s looking for the next couple of weeks. To be honest, for the first week and a bit, there’s not much to get excited about. It’s going to be a real grind. We’re looking at a lot of small, weak swell and less-than-ideal winds, so don’t be expecting any heroics.
There’s a real quiet spell coming up. From now until the 23rd of August, it’s pretty flat and poor. Most days are showing that weak energy, with combined swell energy readings mostly in the double digits, like 74 or 97, just not enough push. You’ll see some knee-high stuff on the 13th morning – the water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 72°, which is a bit notable, but the waves are just “surfable” at best. There’s a glassy moment on the 16th and the 21st mornings, but the waves are still small and unorganized. This stretch is going to test your patience. The gap in any real surf is the better part of a week and a half, from now until around the 24th.
Now, the one true standout in this whole outlook is Rodiles - Main Beach on the morning of Monday the 24th of August. This is the one you want to circle. We’ve got a proper swell filling in, showing 7ft from the NNW with a 10-second period. The energy reading jumps right up to 832, which is a massive difference from the weak stuff we’ve been seeing. The wind is due west at 12 mph, which is cross-offshore, meaning it’s going to be clean. This is the only real window of size and quality in the whole 16 days. The downside is, with a wave that big, it’s more of an expert’s game. If you’re a beginner, this one’s going to be too much.
The days after that settle back down quickly. The 25th has a bit of surf, but nothing special, and the energy drops off. By the 27th and 28th, we’re back to small, clean, and pretty ordinary. The 28th morning shows some promise with a glassy start and a 4ft NW swell, but it’s not a patch on what the 24th offers.
So there you have it. A whole lot of nothing, then a Monday morning punch. If you can get the day off on the 24th, go get some. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and wait for the next system.
