Saint Leu Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks at Saint Leu are looking like a real treat for the experienced crew. We’ve got a solid run of groundswells lining up, and with the right winds, this point is going to be pumping.

We kick off on Thursday, July 23rd, with a clean 6 ft swell from the south, carrying some serious energy (1155). The moderate offshore breeze from the SSE will have the lineup looking tidy. This is proper, powerful surf for advanced surfers.

Friday the 24th is the real standout. A glassy morning, flat calm, with a 4 ft SSW groundswell. The period is a long 15 seconds, so you’ll get those long, wrapping lines down the point with plenty of push (1040). This is a dream session right here.

Saturday morning the 25th keeps the glassy conditions going with a 5 ft SW swell. It’s clean, it’s consistent, and it’s all yours. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.

Sunday the 26th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning has a light onshore breeze, but the afternoon is a gem. The wind drops to glassy, and a 4 ft SSW groundswell with a very long 19-second period rolls in, packing a serious punch (1468). This long-period energy will wrap beautifully around the point, but it might feel a bit fat on the sections.

Now, Monday the 27th is for the big dogs. The morning is glassy and pumping 8 ft of SW swell (3634). This is a heavy, powerful, and very strong wave energy. This is expert territory only. If you’re not on it, stay on the beach.

The following week keeps the swell alive. Thursday the 30th has a 3 ft SSW groundswell with a massive 22-second period. That’s an incredibly long wait between sets, but the energy is still strong (1540). It’ll be clean and perfect for those who can read the ocean.

The absolute peak of the run comes on Friday, July 31st. Morning has a clean 8 ft SSW swell, with a strong offshore flow (3984). The afternoon is the same size, still offshore, and still pumping (3509). This is as good as it gets. If you can handle the size, you’ll have the wave of your life.

The first week of August holds a steady supply of 4 ft to 5 ft SSW groundswells with consistent offshore winds. It’s a long, healthy run of clean, powerful surf. The energy drops a bit towards the end of the second week, but Wednesday, August 6th, brings a glassy morning with a 4 ft, 15-second SSW groundswell to wrap things up nicely.

This is one of those rare forecasts where the stars align. The swell is consistent, the wind is nearly always offshore or glassy, and the point at Saint Leu is built for this. Get out there and get some.

Rusty.
