Table - best surf conditions forecast for San Vicente Rivermouth over the next 16 days.
Right, let’s have a look at what’s coming up for San Vicente Rivermouth over the next couple of weeks. I’m not gonna lie to you, mate – it’s a pretty grim run. The entire 16-day window is a real struggle. From Friday the 10th of July right through to Thursday the 23rd of July, there’s absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. That’s a solid two-week stretch of poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3 ft, the wind is all over the shop, and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” every single day. The combined swell energy is weak, often below 100 (e.g. 46, 68, 40), so there’s just no power in the water. The water temperature is sitting at 68°F with a 2°F anomaly, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s about the only interesting thing.
The only glimmer of hope – and I mean a tiny, fragile glimmer – comes right at the very end of the period. On Friday the 24th of July morning, we finally get a brief moment of something. The wind goes glassy, the swell is a modest 3 ft from the NW with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 199 (moderate). The wave comment improves to “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions”, scoring a 1 out of 10. It’s not a standout, it’s just the only thing on offer. The wind is glassy, which is a huge positive, and it’s a river mouth, so it can handle that longer-period groundswell (11 seconds) well. But it’s inconsistent, and crowds are possible (listed as “sometimes”). The swell direction is NW, which matches the optimum direction, so that’s a plus. For a brief window on the morning of the 24th, you might get a few clean, if small, waves. But don’t get your hopes up. After that, Saturday the 25th slides back into poor conditions with cross-shore wind and a bit of rain.
There’s nothing else. No big swell, no clean wind, no second-week promise. This is a rare blank run for the area, and it just doesn’t look like it’s going to get good. Stay patient, and keep an eye on the forecasts.
