The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, giving you the straight story from the beach.

Let’s be honest, the next 16 days are a tough grind for Sebastian Inlet-First Peak. The surf is almost non-existent. We’re talking tiny waves, mostly knee-high or less, and the energy is just plain weak. The combined swell energy readings are all in the low double digits or below, like 46 (weak) and 31 (weak). It’s a persistent flat spell. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing special.

We start on Friday, July 24th, with a tiny 2ft to 3ft easterly windswell, but it’s got an east cross-onshore breeze, making it choppy and messy. Not worth it. Saturday, July 25th, the swell drops to 2ft. The morning is clean with a light cross-offshore wind, but the swell is too small to get excited about. The afternoon gets a bit messy with a cross-shore wind.

Sunday, July 26th, is only 2ft waves. The morning is clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, but it's small. The best chance for clean conditions comes later in the week. On Tuesday, July 28th, we get a light offshore wind in the morning, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft. That pattern holds through the end of the month – tiny 0.6ft to 1ft waves with some offshore winds. It’s an exercise in patience.

Moving into August, we see a brief moment of calm. On Monday, August 3rd, the morning goes glassy, which is a beautiful thing to see, but the swell is still only 2ft. It’s the best-looking clean window of the whole forecast, but you’re not surfing anything of consequence. The following days are just more of the same: small, choppy easterly windswell.

The very end, on August 7th and 8th, shows a tiny bump of 0.6ft swell, but with a long period reading like 11-12 seconds on the 7th and 8th. That’s a groundswell pulse, but it’s so small and coming from the east-northeast with onshore wind, it’s not going to turn into a rideable wave. The combined energy is still reading weak (24 and 23).

Bottom line: there is no standout here. The entire 16 days is a flat, frustrating period. The only positive is that the inlet is very consistent, so it won’t stay this way forever. For now, leave the board in the car and go for a swim.

Rusty.
