The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for our local stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a bit is looking pretty flat. We've got a real dry spell on our hands. The only real action in the entire 16-day window is a very limited window right at the start.
Monday, July 27th is our only real chance to get wet. Viareggio - Royal is the spot, and it's an exposed beach break that needs a solid SW swell to work. Monday morning we get a pulse of 3ft swell from the SW with a period of 7 seconds. It's short-period windswell, but that juice gives us a combined energy of 108 (moderate). The water here is absolutely roasting, coming in at a very unusual 84°, which is a massive 7° warmer than average for this time of year – that’s freakishly warm. The real kicker is the wind: for the Monday morning session it's glassy, dead calm from the SE at 0 mph. That means the surf will be clean as a whistle, even if the waves aren't setting the world on fire. It’s a beginner wave size, so perfect for a longboard or a foamy. Worth noting this break is inconsistent, so you'll be waiting for the sets, but when they come, you'll have it mostly to yourself as crowds are "often" but with these small conditions, it shouldn't be too hectic.
After that Monday morning window, it goes very quiet. The wind shifts onshore in the afternoon, and from Tuesday, July 28th right through to Sunday, August 10th, we’re looking at tiny, weak surf with barely any energy. The combined swell energy drops to single or low double-digits for days on end. It’s a full-on flat spell for the area. Don’t bother checking the cams until at least the second week.
There is a glimmer of very distant hope. Looking way out, Tuesday, August 11th, we see another small pulse from the S at 2ft and a 5-second period. Combined energy is only 20 (weak) and it's showing as poor conditions with onshore wind. It's a long way off, so don't pin any hopes on it, but it beats staring at a lake.
That's the long and short of it. A little Monday morning glass-off window, then a whole lot of nothing. Keep the wax dry.
